With the Crunch of An Apple, Montgomery County Celebrates School Breakfast
At 9:15 a.m. on Wednesday, thousands of Marylanders participated in the “Hear the Maryland Crunch” program. Students, teachers, politicians, county officials and more crunched on an apple to highlight the importance of the School Breakfast Program.
The event is held during National School Breakfast Week as a reminder of the importance of children beginning their day with a healthy meal.
Here are some highlights on social media from the celebration. For more information on the event, check out the Maryland Hunger Solution’s website.

Manna CEO @jacqdecarlo says that while our kids are “bright and enthusiastic and have a lot of potential, many struggle with #foodinsecurity.” Making sure all children have access to healthy food (including #SchoolBreakfast) gives every kid a chance to succeed! #HearTheCrunch 🍎 pic.twitter.com/UtLpcg9npx
