“If Mcdonald's can be offered around the world Tommy Tomato can be as well”

Bas Turk is one with a true and clear mission for the betterment of children in the Netherlands. Obesity and overweight are on the rise among children, with diet being one of the contributing factors. Nowadays, children are eating fewer vegetables and more unhealthy foods.

This needs to change, and Bas is taking the step to make this change within schools. By offering services and lunches filled with vegetables and goodness, to become the "Healthy McDonald's of the World".
