This special issue of the Journal of Food Science Education (JFSE) provides K-12 teachers with ideas and resources that can assist them in utilizing food to enhance the interest and learning of their students. These articles were selected to provide a range of approaches and, hopefully, provide something that every reader can apply in their classroom. I encourage you to regularly read JFSE and take advantage of this open access journal. I particularly recommend that you read Jim Bird's regular column, "Food Science Education Publications and Websites", that highlights internet resources. Most of you would find Jim's "Gems" very useful. -Grady Chism, Scientific Editor, JFSE
