This was our ‘Reading Group’ activity from week 3, term 4:

Before you watch the vision, think about the following questions.  You do not need to answer them ALL, but think about them as you watch and consider them in your comment. 

1. How do markets make food more exciting or ‘appealing’?
2. Where can you find nutritional information about the product you’re buying?
3. What should you look out for on the labeling on the product?
4. What is MSG?
5. What do additives do to the food they’re in?
6. What effect do additives have on children?
7. What differences does eating healthily have on children?
8. Why doesn’t the government provide more warnings about additives?
9. What do you think ‘hard evidence’ is?
10. Will your food choices change since after viewing this investigation? Why or why not?
