BCBS-Tennessee Plans Healthy Caf

The dining operation at new BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee headquarters in Chattanooga will forego unhealthful menu options like fried chicken, french fries and burgers, reports the Chattanooga Times-Free Press. The café, to be managed by SodexoMagic, a partnership between Sodexo and Magic Johnson Enterprises, will emphasize more healthful options as a way to improve eating habits among employees.

The healthful choices will be available both in the main 400-seat dining room and in a second café outlet. The selections are expected to include to-order stir frys from a Mongolian grill, pizzas with whole-wheat crusts made to order in a gas-fired oven, a hot entrée station and salad bar as well as extensive grab-and-go sandwiches and salads.
