ATLANTA, Oct. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Chickin Feed, LLC, an Atlanta-based
company on a mission to help families develop better eating habits, encourages
everyone to plan now for a healthier 2009 by adding Chickin Feed to your
holiday shopping lists. With the current economic slump, Americans looking to
trim costs are likely to start eliminating items from their grocery lists.
And, with the holidays just around the corner, so is the temptation to
overindulge on rich holiday fare. Chickin Feed can help you manage both
situations with simple, fun solutions.

and healthy choices towards a balanced daily diet while the Primer, A useful
companion for modern families, provides expert tips on everything from

available in six delectable colors: Whirled Peas, Pumpkin Pie, Banana Pudding,
Jadite Glass, Blue Plate Special and Berries 'n Creme. Already the Center for
Disease Control and Prevention estimates that nearly 20 percent of U.S.
children ages six to 11 are overweight.

shopping and stocking the pantry, as well as yummy recipes for every meal of
