I admit that I love my share of snacks. Rather then to become a poster child for the obesithy epidemic in North America, I decided to learn about diet and nutrition. I then felt that I should share what little knowledge I had gained with other kids around me. I ran a program in my school that taught kids in grade 5 and 6 how to eat healthier. Then I ran a similar prog in another school in the area.Eventually however, I found that what I really wanted to do is not only teach kids that were around me, but also the ones that I didn’t know. The only way I could affect people that were far from me was to take the humble amount of information that I have gathered and put it into a book. There are many diet books on the market . My aim is to focus on snacks as they contribute significantly to the obesity epidemic. In this book I have reviewed some popular cookies, chips ans granola bars. and have evaluated them based on their nutrition status.view less
