Kamar Saint-Louis 9T 30/10/07 Individual Task 6.1 Technology CTA

I chose a jam label and a tomato sauce label. The differences were that the tomato sauce label was bigger than the jam label, due to the larger size of the tomato sauce label. Both labels had nutrition facts to tell about the nutrients in the chutneys. Both the jam and tomato sauce have pictures/logos describing who made the product. Lastly, the tomato sauce label shows why it is better than other products.



Task 6.2

On our label we have decided to put the following items:

• Nutrition facts consisting of the serving size, and the amount of the various nutrients contained in the products.


• Instructions on how the chutney/preservative can be used.


• Why this product is good for someone to use.


• How this product is better than others on the market.


• A logo that shows which company created the product.


• Some pictures that help to describe the instuctions on how to use the chutney/preservative.


• Some history of the product.

Task 3 Nutrition

Group Class Activity

Task 3.4 The food groups are meat and meat equivalents (proteins), dairy and milk products, vegetables, fats and oils, grains and grain products, and fruits.

Task 3.3 The six nutrients are carbohydrates, water, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Water is used as a catalyst in chemical reaction which allow you break down the food you eat into energy for your body to use. Water also removes toxins from your body as urine, and takes away heat when you sweat. Carbohydrates are sugars and starches that can be broken down by the body and used as energy. There are two kind of carbohydrates: simple and complex carbohydrates. Proteins build body tissues in muscles, body organs, and individual cell. These proteins are made up of amino acids. Fats are an important store of energy in the body. Without fats your cells will not be able to live. Vitamins are important for the cellular machinery in your body. There are two kinds of vitamins: fat soluble and water soluble. An example of a vitamin is vitamin A. Vitamin A is fat soluble and helps your eyes, bones and skin. Lastly, minerals are also important for cellular machinery, but they do not provide calories or energy. Minerals such as calcium or iron keep your bones healthy and help the blood transport oxygen to the other parts of the body.
