Barrie Zehrs store holds Eat Together event

Last year, President’s Choice embarked on a mission to bring Canadians to the table to #EatTogether.

This year, the journey continued with Eat Together Day on June 22 at the Zehrs at Cundles and Duckworth streets, as well as other Zehrs, Loblaws, and No Frills locations across Barrie.

Almost half (42 per cent) of all Canadians eat lunch alone every day at work. With 66 per cent of working Canadians agreeing they should be eating lunch with colleagues more on a regular basis, Eat Together is the perfect opportunity to start this habit.

Zehrs wants to address this in Barrie, so a barbecue was held at the store on June 22.

“It is a great way for everyone to come together over food which has mental and nutritional benefits,” store manager Dan Ward said. “We had live music, Clarabella the Clown doing face-painting and balloon art, and a jumpy castle for the kids.”
