★ Here is what previous buyers are saying:

 

  •  "Actually one of the best resources I've ever downloaded from TPT. I can't believe it was free!! I don't even teach health. I'm using it for a class on science literacy and this was the perfect fit for my unit on food science and diets."
  • "Kids bring in all kinds of things and ask is this healthy, but I believe that once I show them this presentation they will know how to check for themselves."
  • "Wow! Such a complete unit and so important... Thanks for creating product that makes me a better teacher!"
  • "I would give this lesson the highest rating. I found the subject matter important, relevant and the lesson highly informative. The lesson was easy to understand and I was able to put ideas to use right away; highly practical and useful!"

      This was an interesting resource that I used in our homeschool for health education. My son, age 16, was particularly surprised to see just how small 2/3 cup of ice cream actually is! I may purchase other resources from this provider.

      Used for culinary arts. Was easier than pulling labels from my actual products.
