Exchange Shoppers Can Save on Eating Healthy with Salad Wednesdays

DALLAS – Soldiers, Airmen and families can keep their bodies and their wallets healthy every Salad Wednesday at Army & Air Force Exchange Service restaurants.

On Wednesdays, diners can take $2 off any salad priced $4 or more at participating Exchange direct-operated restaurants.

“The Exchange is dedicated to supporting readiness and resiliency among Warfighters and their families,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Luis Reyes, the Exchange’s senior enlisted advisor. “The military community can count on the Exchange to make it easy and affordable to make healthy choices.”

Salad Wednesday is part of the Exchange’s BE FIT initiative, which promotes healthy lifestyles for Soldiers, Airmen, retirees and military families.
