Editor's Notes
- Now that weāve looked at the marketing message. Weāre going to learn how to find out more about whatās really inside the package. Ask students to locate the nutrition statement label on their food. By law with few exceptions, must be on packaged foods. Give us information about what nutrients are in the food. Question - Name a food that doesnāt have a nutrition facts label. Answer - Whole foods - Fruit vegetable, meats, grains - foods that you can imagine growing (on a bush, vine, tree), being harvested, or is still in itās natural state. Talk briefly about the difference between whole food and processed foods Processed foods are ones that have had something done to them āweāll focus on the highly processed foods. Point out Serving Size and servings per container Make sure itās clear to them that even though a package might look like a single serving, it may in fact contain multiple servings . Ask students for a definition of calories . Calories: A measurement of the amount of energy a food provides. Ask students if they know how many calories they think they need. Answer ā About 2000 but it depends on your activity . Stress the importance of balance ā more energy expended more calories needed. Less energy expended ā less calories needed . If you have more calories than you need, your body will store it as fat. Explain about fats Good fats ā we need to have some Mono & Polyunsaturated (olive oil, fish oils) Not-so-good fats ā Saturated (butter, cream, animal fats) Bad fats - ALWAYS AVOID (Vegetable shortening, Crisco) trans fats ā anything hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated Point out Sodium, Carbohydrates (including fiber), Protein. Point out Vitamins and Minerals - Vitamin A āEyesight Vitamin C āHealing Calcium ā bones Iron ā Blood

- The ingredients are listed in order by weight from greatest to least. This means the first ingredient is found in large quantities in the food and the last ingredient is found in small quantities in the food . Read the list of ingredients for the canned chili. Ask if anyone recognizes and knows what all the ingredients are. Read the list of ingredients for the Hearty Vegetable Chili. Ask if anyone recognizes and knows what all the ingredients are. The Hearty Vegetable Chili is made of ingredients that are whole foods and that the canned chili is made of ingredients that are processed. Two Rules of Thumb ā Shorter the list, the better If you canāt pronounce the ingredients or donāt know what it is, wait until you can find out what it is. Now we are going to go back to our packages and find out how healthy they really might be . ļ Pass out Food Detective Part 2 worksheet. How many servings per container ā you have to multiply all the rest of the numbers by the number of servings per container Have each group look at the Nutrition Facts Statement and Ingredient List have them look at how long the list is, do they recognize all the ingredients, Look how high sweeteners are listed ā remember greatest to least. Is the food as healthful as they thought? Is the message represented on the package truthful? The words have to be factual but was the message overstated, leaving the consumer with an inaccurate impression? ļ Give teams 7 minutes to identify ļ Call on one person from each group to share what they found.
