Food packages are the most frequently referenced nutrition tool for consumers. This discussion will help you to better understand nutrition labels. Your first post should be a minimum of 100 words and address the following points:

1) Answer this question: How confident are you interpreting food labels? Does knowledge of the nutrient content in foods influence your purchases or meal planning?

2) Choose a food package from your cabinets. Do not choose a beverage or candy. Using the information you learned in Chapter 3, take time to review your product package. What have you learned from the ingredient list, the nutrient facts panel, doe syou product make any nutrient or health claims? Discuss one thing you learned in detail. Do not simply list nutrition facts.

Please identify your food item and include your name in the subject line of your initial post. Lastly, reply to at least one other student with an substantive comment.

“The following activity will simulate the spread of a disease-causing microorganism at a luncheon. One individual at the luncheon has contracted the disease within the previous 24 hours. However, this individual is unaware of the disease because they have not begun to exhibit symptoms. During the luncheon, many individuals are sharing and tasting the beverages and food. To simulate sharing of beverages at the luncheon, you will mix the beverage I am about to hand you with 3 different people. To mix beverages, carefully pour all of the contents of your cup into another person’s cup. The person with the full cup will then pour ½of their cup’s contents back into your cup. Share drinks with a total of 3 people. It is very important that no one actually drinks any of the “beverages.”

1.Imagine you are one of the people who left the luncheon with a contagious disease and interacted with an average of 9 different people each day. How many people could potentially be infected in 7 days?

2.. Imagine the other remaining persons who received the contagious disease at the end of the luncheon interacted with an average of 6 different people per day. How many people could potentially be infected in 7 days by these others who left the luncheon?

3. If the contagious individual at the mock luncheon had not shared beverages or food, might others still have contracted the disease-causing microorganism?
