All's Well That Eats Well
Program Overview

The Story
Judy, our Hero, finds herself out of energy and out of luck. It seems the Greast has taken away all the healthy foods in the land so everyone will feel as crummy as he does. It is up to Judy to stop him and get all the healthy foods back into everyone’s diet. Along the way, Judy meets a number of characters who help her out and teach her about the ‘High Five Foods’. Eventually, Judy and the audience convince the Greast that good nutrition is important to everyone and he agrees to eat high five foods and return the healthy foods to the land.
