Welcome to Spot the Block, the award-winning outreach campaign that challenges tweens (ages 9 to 13) to use the Nutrition Facts Label to make healthy food choices. With engaging content from Cartoon Network plus hands-on parent information and grassroots outreach, kids and families across the U.S. can Spot the Block today – and every day! In 1990 a Federal law was passed requiring almost all foods to print a nutrition label on packages. These labels supply a wealth of information to the consumer. Students will examine the food label in general and focus on the information concerning servings, calories and fat. Label it Nutritious. Students will learn to read and compare food labels for nutrition information. |
