Five- and six-year-olds may not be able to put a five- or six-course meal on the table, but there's one thing they do know when it comes to food - pizza.

Today, kids challenged Wegmans "iron chef" Michael Flint to see who could make the healthiest veggie pizza. The students were decked out in aprons and chef's hats.

The goal of this Be A Healthy Hero food challenge - develop healthy habits at an early age.

"If they start these habits now, they're more likely to continue them as adults and that's why we so support this event," said Sean Tracy-Hamilton, director of the Early Learning Center.
