The Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) - Capiz revives the production of nutritious bun (nutribun) during the launching and first leg of its Capiz Training Outreach Program (CapizTOP) in the municipality of Pontevedra, July 18.
Baking, that produced 1,000 pieces of nutritious buns (nutribun), was one of crash-courses conducted which was participated in by 50 Senior High School students.
“While it does not look exactly as how it appeared before, some modification of ingredients certainly adds up to its health value,” said Capiz TESDA director Engr. Abdel Bakhri Hajan.
Nutribun was a healthy snack advocated during the administration of President Marcos, distributed in public schools nationwide, to minimize the consumption of unhealthy junk foods by students for a healthy living.
