Summary

Rotating on-air each day, Pass the Plate "aims to inspire kids and preteens to lead a healthier lifestyle by sharing cultural and historical facts about food and cooking, while giving emphasis to kids assisting in the preparation of their own meal." Each of the ten segments focuses on the exposition, preparation and health benefits of one food item – mangoes, rice, fish, tomatoes, bananas, grains, vegetables, fruits and spinach - and takes viewers across the globe on a tour of how these foods are enjoyed by kids and families in each country.

Production

Culinary educator David Glickman is a consultant to the Pass the Plate series.

"We want our programming to reflect and recognize that everyone shares a responsibility to encourage kids and families to adopt healthy lifestyles. Our ongoing healthy kids initiatives...and especially Pass the Plate...represent our global team's effort to both inform and empower our viewers, showing them how kids just like them around the world enjoy and benefit from healthy foods," Disney Channel's Worldwide President Rich Ross said in a statement.
