Snacking

What was healthy about the snack you just made?

The snack we made consisted of a quarter apple, peanut butter, and almonds. These foods are low-sugar and low-fat, and have lots of vitamins and nutrients that essentially make up a healthy mini-meal. 

How often to snack?

If we are to snack, we should snack before meals, two to three times a day. Snacks should also not be very big - just enough to evade hunger until the next meal.

What's in a healthy snack?

A healthy snack will generally not be sticky and will not have HFCS, high fat, or artificial ingredients. The foods should be nutritious and natural.

Snacks to stay away from?

Ritz bits, Cheetos, beef jerky - they contain a lot of artificial ingredients, empty calories, lots of preservatives, high sugar or fat content.

What did you like/ dislike about the activity?

I liked that their activity was very interactive and made snacking fun. I also liked the video, it was interesting to watch.
