~ eating healthier

Today for reading, I was learning about eating food that are healthier than what I usually eat. I was told to share my learning with you so that everyone can see all the useful stuff we are learning about. I learnt to have a little bit of chocolate in what I eat. Usually, I eat a lot of junk. But after doing all of this work, I really want to change the food I eat. Maybe, you could become healthier too. LIKE ME ! 


  1. How does the article recommend to follow a healthy pathway when shopping at a grocery store/supermarket?  SHARE
    1. Parents could make a list to keep themselves on track with healthy food.  It also says that if we shop at a grocery store, we should focus our shopping on the store’s perimeter. The outer aisles have the healthiest food stored in it.
  2. We can buy plenty of fruit and vegetables that are frozen or canned. What does the article suggest are the pros (positives) and cons (negatives) of frozen and canned food? SHARE
    1. The positives of frozen or canned fruit and veggies are that they are convenient. They put the right amount of salt and fat in the frozen, canned fruit and vegetables for us to eat but, not to addict to. The negatives of frozen or canned fruit and veggies are that they put over the amount of salt and fat in the cans. Most of the customers that are buying those canned fruit and veggies, don’t even realise that they have added more salt and fat in the cans. Sometimes, we just buy the cans without checking what’s really in it and we could probably be addicted to whatever is in the can of fruit or veggies.
  3. What other helpful healthy advice does this article give for our grocery shopping? SHARE
    1. It gives advice about having a little bit of fat or chocolate in other things we buy. It also says that parents shouldn't talk too much about bad food and they also shouldn't be afraid to let their kids choose one thing that is; ‘unhealthy’, at the grocery store.

  1. Well done Hannah. I like that you have added your own reflection to the task.
    Reread the text, to see if you can find any more advice for question 3.
