(Keep it appropriate) Did you know? 1500 mg of sodium amounts to 0.75 teaspoons or 3.75 grams of salt per day, while 2300 mg amounts to one teaspoon or 6 grams of salt per day. Most people today are eating much more than that. The average intake of sodium is about 3400 mg, most of it coming from processed foods. Grade 7 math: We are learning how to solve for missing values. Do these two questions for tomorrow. 1. If 44g of carbs= 15% How many grams of carbs make 100%? 2. Homework:

Grade 7s math - we have been discussing how to find the percent daily value of nutritional components of foods. The Canada Food Guide is an awesome resource. Click on the link to explore this resource. Grade 7s - this is an example of two labels. Your question is from pg. 158 in the text: if 290mg of sodium is 12% of your daily intake, how many grams would 100% be. In other words how much salt is recommended on this label for one day. We learned about the recall of food items when we were at Sysco. Here is an actual example that is happening now. POST your thoughts after clicking on this link. Dole recall
