Nutrition Rules to Live By

I teach UCLA undergraduates an introductory nutrition class. My favorite assignment that my students complete and that I love to ‘grade’ is the nutrition infographic. The students are asked to share what are their nutrition ‘rules to eat by’. They are asked - Growing up, what kind of nutrition 'rules' did their family follow? What kinds of foods did they eat? What was the social or symbolic significance of those foods? This year I decided I wanted to complete this assignment, too! Here it is – my family nutrition infographic. Want to join in? What nutrition ‘rules to live by’ does your family follow?
