Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The aim of this study is to:
Randomize 240 individuals in 8-10 worksites to either Good Bowls alone or Good Bowls + Phone App nudges. Using a crossover design, the primary outcome is the score on a validated Mediterranean diet screener, with secondary outcomes including weight, blood pressure, carotenoid levels, and food security.
Participants: Workers at blue and white-collar worksites.
Procedures: Workers will be recruited from 8-10 worksites who will be initially randomized within each site to Good Bowls alone or Good Bowls + Phone App nudges. Initial assignment will be followed for four months, after which the groups will crossover for the subsequent four months. The investigators will collect survey data as well as some physiologic measures including skin scanning (non-invasive), weight, and blood pressure. Effects between groups will be determined.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Good Bowls + App Nudges, followed by Good Bowls alone
Participants in this arm will be exposed to Good Bowls + App Nudges throughout the first four months followed by four months of Good Bowls alone.
Good Bowls
Healthy, frozen subsidized meals are made conveniently available on worksites.
Good Bowls + App Nudges
Healthy, frozen subsidized meals are made conveniently available on worksites.
Additionally, Bluetooth enabled beacons will be set up at each worksite that will send location specific messages to an individual's Smartphone via an App. These messages will include nutritional information, tips, and behavioral nudges.
