Students of seventh grade made a presentation on “Food labeling”. They obtained the information regarding the nutritional content of the foods commonly consumed by them. A chart was prepared based on this and they presented the information collected to the class. Various food items such as Maggi noodles, chocolates, juices, soy milk, biscuits, candies, health drinks, etc were used.

Students enjoyed this activity as it was fun – filled and educational. It gave the students firsthand information about the amount of calories, fat content, sugar content, etc in the food stuffs. This would help them to make wise food choices.
