Six lively teens show us why breakfast is the smart way to start your day, and how to eat smart by reading nutrition labels. In short snappy scenes, the audience learns: how to balance protein, healthy fats and carbohydrates, why a balanced breakfast is important, how to read the ingredients list on the nutrition label, and why we should avoid sugar, corn syrup, enriched flour, and trans fats and choose whole grains instead. A high level introduction to the food pyramid featuring breakfast foods is also included.
