    newsletter or magazine and written at the 8th grade reading level.

  • Food Labels

    Instructions

    Find food labels for four foods that you often eat. You can find them online and copy the picture. The labels need to show the front of the package and the nutrition facts panel and ingredient list. One or two to a page works and leaves room to type. This will be a more useful activity if you pick interesting foods with longer ingredient lists, or lots of information on the package. A simple food like tuna would be rather boring and would not meet the focus of this assignment.

    What you write about is up to you as long as you show interest and engagement with the activity. How you do it is also up to you. You can point out items on each label with arrows and mention it in your written part. Each food item/label must include a paragraph below it with the answers/comments you have about it.

    Questions and items to consider when are evaluating your food item/label:

    1. Are there any interesting claims on the package?
    2. Can you see how the claim is backed up on the Nutrition Facts Panel or the Ingredient List?
    3. Is the Serving Size the amount you eat? Much less, bigger?
    4. Looking at the Daily Values are there any surprises there? Is this food high in any of the less-desirable components? Low in desirable ones?
    5. Are there any surprises in the ingredient list? Can you pronounce the names, know what they are? Maybe look up some that you do not recognize and tell what they are.

    Additional Notes

    • Paste your labels into a document and make sure they are large enough to read.
    • Type your response below each food item you have chosen (you will have 4 all together for your submission).
