What's your Vegemite level?

Are you a cautious 1️⃣, a classic 3️⃣, or a bold 5️⃣?

And remember, there are no wrong answers... unless you're putting Vegemite on without butter. 😉

Have you ever thought ‘Is the sushi you order from the shops giving the amount of protein in tuna or the amount of avo they claim to give?’

This is what Dietitians can do.

In this video, we’re breaking delicious sushi down to weigh individual pieces. We do this regularly for clients for meal or product verification.

We also do meal audits in the childcare, disability, meals on wheels services, retirement villages and the aged care space.

In aged care, each year we conduct hundreds of MMQAs, and part of this is weighing the different components in meals and snacks to look at the different food groups, and whether there enough protein, calcium and other important nutrients.

Keep your eyes out for our Dietitians doing these audits and feel free to say hi!

Happy Dietitians’ Week!

Well… this one’s a bit of a plot twist. Garlic powder containing peanuts? 😳

A recent recall by Food Standards Australia New Zealand has highlighted just how unpredictable food allergens can be — because let’s be honest, garlic powder isn’t exactly where you’d expect to find peanuts. The good news? This hidden allergen was picked up and the product was recalled — exactly how the food safety system is meant to work.

And that’s the point… would you have checked the garlic powder before cooking?👀

Allergen risks don’t always come from obvious sources, which is why reading food labels every time is non-negotiable. It only takes one overlooked ingredient to create a serious situation for people with allergies.

Because when it comes to food safety in Aged Care & Childcare, “she’ll be right” just doesn’t cut it.

In the lead up to our Managing Director’s special day, our team planned a surprise ‘Almost Mr & Mrs’ shower.

Our food-loving crew brought a plate to share, and between the mountain of delicious food, cake, and (hopefully) some helpful marriage advice, it was the perfect way to celebrate Nicole and Adam. A big thank you to everyone who contributed and made the day feel extra special.

Nicole is such a wonderful and supportive leader, so it meant a lot to do something special for her. Adam has fit into the OSCAR Care Group team so naturally, and we couldn’t be happier for them both.

Understanding autism doesn’t always look the way you think.
Sometimes it looks like:
• Serving the same meal (again)
• Not asking for “just one bite”
• Leaving the plate exactly how they like it

Groundbreaking? No. Important? Very. Because when something feels familiar and comfortable, that’s where small wins can start.

At OSCAR Care Group & Clinic, we work with families and childcare centres to understand the autistic people in their care. This World Autism Understanding Day, we’re not rushing the process — we’re respecting where it starts and building from there.

Take egg-stra care this Easter weekend

As we enjoy time with family, food and traditions, it’s important to keep food safety front of mind — especially when preparing and sharing meals.

Here are a few simple ways to reduce risk this Easter:

🧊 Keep raw meat, seafood, dairy and other high-risk foods in an insulated cool box or esky with plenty of ice
❄️ Avoid overloading your fridge or freezer, as this can impact their ability to keep food safely chilled
🥤 Store drinks in eskies to allow more space in the fridge for perishable items
🍪 Avoid tasting raw mixtures or dough, as uncooked eggs may carry harmful bacteria
🐟 Purchase seafood no earlier than the day before you plan to consume it

Small steps like these can help protect the health and wellbeing of those in your care.

Wishing you a safe and enjoyable Easter.

Happy Spinach Day 💚

Not all greens are created equal… When you compare spinach to iceberg lettuce, the difference is clear.

Darker, leafy greens like spinach are packed with more vitamins and minerals, while lighter leaves tend to offer less nutritional value. Spinach is a true superfood

It can help:
✨ Support gut health
✨ Boost brain function
✨ Reduce blood pressure
✨ Fight inflammation
✨ Strengthen your immune system

That’s why including spinach on menus in aged care and childcare settings is such a simple but powerful way to support growing bodies and healthy ageing. Adding more spinach to meals can help protect against chronic conditions like cancer, autoimmune diseases, and diabetes.

What’s your favourite spinach dish?
