1995 SoCal Disaster Institute
The following menu was designed for the 1995 Southern California Disaster Institute "picnic in the park." The menu items are shown, along with product used (where applicable) and additional products that were needed.
Menu notes: This is a very simple logistical meal to produce as it uses primarily per-prepared foods and does not require a full institutional kitchen. It is not the best teaching menu, since it doesn’t require a full institutional kitchen or use many preparation techniques. Cost per meal was about $5 as of 1995.
