In Mrs. Molina’s Family and Consumer Sciences class students have been evaluating their nutrition habits based on their calorie, fats, sodium, and sugar consumption.  Students also learned to identify one of their packaged food items that they consumed frequently and explain why the item is or is not a healthy snack based on analyzing the calories/calories from fat, % daily value, and the ingredient list. The app, MyFitnessPal as well as Food Tracker on the ChooseMyPlate.gov website were used to analyze nutrition intakes and then the data was compiled into a food journal using Book Creator.
