NORWICH – Chobani® was founded on the belief that good food, made naturally, can change the world. To inspire that belief among the youth of our local community and share the joy that comes with making and sharing good food, Chobani® created the My Plate, My State recipe competition – an event that culminated last month in three local schools and, this month, will unfold in Chobani®’s second hometown, Twin Falls, Idaho.

As part of the My Plate, My State recipe competition, middle school students of Edmeston, Norwich and Unadilla Valley were challenged to create their own recipes utilizing Chobani® yogurt with a focus on the My Plate nutrition guide and inspired by their state, New York. Each location was met with excitement from students and staff alike, as five top recipes were picked from each location before performing a cook-off for three food experts from the local community.
