/0x4*
In this assignment you will be looking at 6 different labels and recording the information that is found on them.While observing the labels, please think about how this information can be helpful.
- Choose one food label for each of the five food groups found on MyPyramid.
- In addition to the five food groups, choose a label from something like a candy bar or a Hostess Twinkie, something that doesn’t fit into the food pyramid.
- For each of the 6 labels you are to provide the following information:
- State what the product is
- Determine serving size
- Is this product nutrient dense or energy dense?
- Number of calories per serving
- Number of calories from fat
- Total carbs
- Total protein
- Total fat
- What are your feelings about the importance of labels?Did you look at them before this class?If so, what were you looking for?Will you look at them now?
