Chef Ahoy in full swing during Navy Week 2011 at Gleaners Food Bank, Detroit, MI.<\/p><\/div>\n

Tens of thousands of people in Metro Detroit are now receiving food pantry staples due to tough economic times.\u00a0 Much of this food goes to waste because people do not know how to create tasty and healthy meals from basic provisions.\u00a0 For young men and women ages 17-19 trying to enlist in the military, over 80% are rejected, mostly because they cannot pass the fitness test.\u00a0 CHEF AHOY was created to bring attention to this very serious problem which affects not only the military but the very foundation of our country as health care costs continue to rise.\u00a0 Nutrition will play an increasingly important role in keeping the U.S. strong.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Top area chefs will lead teams made up of Navy Culinary Specialists (CS), veterans, community leaders, media, and youth members.\u00a0 Together they\u2019ll combine pantry basics from fresh and organic produce and herbs from two local farms, RC Organic Farm and Haven, and \u2018Mystery Ingredients\u2019 culled from Navy history during the War of 1812.\u00a0 Chef teams will have 3 to 4 hours to prepare tastings for celebrity judges and Skipper\u2019s Table guests.\u00a0 Recent ‘Biggest Loser’ contestant Buddy Shuh will make a special appearance at 1pm.\u00a0 Participating restaurants and vendors will feature food samples and other offerings.\u00a0 Come join in the fun:<\/strong><\/p>\n
