processes) •Questions for unknown/unclear components (parts

and processes)• Starts with growing of plants• Ends with disposal of food/packaging

What about ingredients?

Nutrition Label Analysis• Group Task: Categorize foods based on food packaging / nutrition

labels.

•Individual Task: Propose a solution to make food packaging / nutrition labels more reflective of the food system.

• Let’s answer these questions together…

1 oz Bag 9 oz Bag

9 oz Bag

Serving Size = 28 g

Realistic Serving Size = 56 g, 22 pieces

21 pieces

Calories = 320

Calories from Fat = 200

%DV Fat: 34%

;) Nutrients: Low

Nutrition Intuition: 5 Finger Rule1.Start with a fist - no fingers up2.Put 1 finger UP for each :) nutrient food has >10% for:

a. Vitamin Ab. Vitamin Cc. Calciumd. Iron

3.Put 1 finger UP if food has >10% (>5 g) of protein and fiber4.Choose to focus on fat or calories and put 1 finger DOWN if…

a. fat >10%b. calories >200

Any fingers remain UP -> FOOD IS NUTRITIOUS

NO fingers up -> FOOD IS NOT NUTRITIOUS

Misleading Food Labels...1. Unrealistic Serving Sizes2. Added Ingredients3. Packaging4. Nutrient Claims:

a. “All Natural”b. “Supports Immune System”c. “Made with…”d. Regulated: Sugar-Freee. Un-reglated: Low-Sugar

6 Chips!

FDA to change labels

DiscussionAre these changes effective?

Do these changes make nutrition labels more reflective of the food industry?

Return to Task 2 and work on independent task.

Re-VoteHow often will you look at the nutrition facts on your food?
