Free Nutrition Coaching for Every VIC Card Household
Every VIC card household has access to one 30-minute virtual nutrition consultation with a licensed registered dietitian—at no cost and from anywhere customers can connect online (nutrition services not available in South Carolina). The session will cover healthy eating and meal planning tips, along with trusted wellness support, to help customers jump-start their 2026 health and wellness goals. Dietitians will show how Harris Teeter customers can access and use the new FoodHealth Score, powered by FoodHealth Company, in the Harris Teeter app, which scores products based on the nutrient density and quality of ingredients in the food. They'll also introduce OptUP® Nutrition Insights, where customers can better understand the nutritional value of purchases, while tracking them over time.
