1 USING THE FOOD LABEL TO FIND ITEMS THAT MEET THE EAT SMART IN PARKS GUIDELINES
2 FOOD LABELS Food Nacho chips label Although one serving of chips (1 ounce) meets the calorie guideline, 3 ounces of chips are typically served with nachos and cheese. If 3 ounces of chips are served, then the number of calories per serving is multiplied by three. 150 calories per serving x 3 (1 oz. servings) = 450 calories So a 3 ounces serving of chips would not meet the calorie guidelines. Because this product has zero grams of trans fat, it meets the trans fat guideline. Because this product has 110 mg of sodium per serving, it meets the sodium guideline. However, if 3 oz. of chips are served then the amount of sodium would need to be multiplied by three. 110 mg sodium/serving x 3 (1 oz. servings) = 330 mg sodium So, a 3 ounces serving of chips would not meet the sodium guideline. To calculate the percent of calories from fat divide the number of calories from fat per serving by the total calories per serving. 60 fat calories/150 total calories = 4 Because the percent calories from fat exceed 35, this product does not meet the percent of calories from fat guideline. The percent of calories from saturated fat= 1 gram saturated fat x 9 calories per gram saturated fat*/ 150 total calories = 6% Because the percent of calories from saturated fat are less than 10, this product meets the saturated fat guideline. Because this product has zero grams of sugar it meets the sugar guideline. * 1 gram of saturated fat contains 9 calories. Carbohydrates and protein contain only 4 calories per gram. Less than half the calories of saturated fat!
3 FOOD LABELS Yes No A. Calories: Is there no more than 250 calories per item (excluding nuts and seeds without added fat or sweeteners)? First check the serving size. If more or less than the serving size listed is served as a menu item then the number of calories should be multiplied or divided accordingly. Also if other ingredients are added to the menu item, then the calories from the other items should be included in the total number of calories. For example, if nachos with cheese are served on the menu then the calories from the cheese sauce should be added to the number of calories from the chips. B. Fat: Do no more than 35 percent of the calories per serving come from fat (excluding nuts, nut butters and seeds without added fat or sweeteners)? The calories from fat will be listed next to the total calories under the Amount per Serving section of the label. The calories from fat should be divided by the total calories to determine the percent calories from fat. fat calories/total calories = % of calories from fat Saturated Fat: Are no more than 10 percent of the total calories from saturated fat? The amount of saturated fat is listed beneath the amount of total fat. To calculate the percent of calories from saturated fat, first figure the amount of calories from saturated fat by multiplying the grams saturated fat by 9 calories/gram fat. Then divide the number of calories from saturated fat by the total calories. (grams of saturated fat x 9 calories per gram fat) / total calories = % calories from saturated fat Trans Fat: Does the product have 0 grams of trans fat (<.5 grams per serving)? The amount of trans fat is listed beneath the total fat and saturated fat. C. Sugar: Do no more than 35 percent of the calories per serving come from sugar? The amount of sugar is listed beneath the Amount per Serving. To calculate the percent of calories from sugar first figure the amount of calories from sugar by multiplying the grams of sugar by 4 calories/gram sugar. Then divide the number of calories from sugar by the total calories. (grams of sugar x 4 calories per gram sugar) / total calories = % of calories from sugar D. Sodium: Is there less than 250 mg of sodium per serving? The amount of sodium is listed beneath the Amount per Serving. If you responded NO to ANY of these questions then the food does NOT meet the guidelines. If you responded YES to ALL of the questions then the food DOES meet the guidelines.
4 Milk } A. The label says this milk is reduced fat, but it doesn t meet the guidelines because it is 2 percent. It is neither nonfat nor low-fat. B. The serving size is 1 cup or 8 ounces. Because it has 12 grams of sugar in 8 ounces, this milk meets this requirement. C. The serving size is 1 cup/8 ounces. Because it has 150 calories in 8 ounces, this milk meets this requirement. Yes No A. Is the milk nonfat or low-fat (1 percent or half percent)? This information is found near the brand name of the milk. B. Does the milk contain no more than 24 grams of sugar per 8 ounces? First check the serving size. If it is 8 ounces (1 cup), then check the amount of sugar per serving. If the serving size is larger or smaller, then the amount of sugar needs to be multiplied or divided accordingly. C. Does the milk contain no more than 150 calories per 8 ounces? If it is 8 ounces (1 cup), then check the amount of calories per serving. If the serving size is larger or smaller, then the amount of calories needs to be multiplied or divided accordingly. If you responded NO to ANY of these questions then the milk does NOT meet the guidelines. If you responded YES to ALL of the questions then the milk DOES meet the guidelines.
5 Water Herbal water Yes No A. Is the water unflavored? Look at the front of the label and the ingredient list to see if flavor has been added. B. Is the water free of additives? Look at the ingredient list. Plain water will not have an ingredient list. C. Is the water is non-carbonated. Look at the front of the label and ingredient list. Seltzer water is carbonated. If you responded NO to ANY of these questions then the water does NOT meet the guidelines. If you responded YES to ALL of the questions then the water DOES meet the guidelines. A., B. & C. Because this water is flavored and includes additives it does not meet the guidelines. Water that meets the guidelines will not typically have an ingredient list.
