Nutrition and Food Service - Possible Assignments

Out-of-Class Assignments (2 required, extra credit available)

  • Interview an adult who has made a major life-style change. (for example: lost weight, quit smoking, began an exercise program, changed diet)
  • Restaurant review (not fast food)
  • Visit a fast food restaurant and get their nutritional chart, analyze the meal you purchased. Be a consumer advocate.
  • Write a letter to a company about a product. This can be a positive or negative letter. Bring your results to class.
  • Compare/Contrast items from the supermarket.
  • Contact a food company and ask them what types of jobs and skills are needed to work for them.
  • Review an article related to nutrition/food.
  • Interview a person who works in the Food service industry (could be our own cafeteria)
  • Create a poster with a nutritional theme.
  • Tape a program that would be of interest from the Food channel and share it with the class.
