Dear Ms. Smith:
My name is Sally Student and My name is Sally Student and I brought my children to Taco Tree yesterday. The food was
great. I am concerned because the only thing on the menu to drink was soda. I think you
should have milk and water available also. Soda is full of sugar and unhealthy for us, but
milk and water are good, nutritional choices. Your food is great and I hope that you will add add
healthier beverage choices healthier beverage choices to to your menu soon!
Thank you,
Sally Student

Dear Mr. Diaz:
My name is Tina Teacher and I come to your store often because it is close to my house.
I enjoy shopping at Jon’s Market because all of the workers are so helpful and nice.
My concern is that often your produce is not fresh. I suggest you check your produce a
few times a day for freshness. Fruits and vegetables are so good for my family, but they
need to be fresh. I hope that you will take my suggestion so that I can continue shopping
in your store.
Sincerely,
Tina Teacher

Dear Ms. Smith:
My children go to your school and I really like the teachers because my children
are learning so much! I am concerned because the food that the students can buy at lunch
has a lot of sugar and fats. I suggest you add a salad bar and some fruit to the cafeteria
choices. Foods high in sugar and fats contribute to obesity, and too many children are
overweight. I hope that for the health of the children you will consider making changes
in your cafeteria food.
Sincerely,
Shaun Green
