This term we will learn about processed food, including minimally processed and ultra-processed foods. After analysing food labelling and discussing their effectiveness, we will compare processed and homemade bread.

After designing a healthy daily menu for an 11-year-old child that meets a set of design criteria, we will be preparing one of the meals. At the end of the project, we will taste and evaluate our peers’ dishes, modifying them if needed.
