Health Fair: Portion Sizes

On Wednesday, I helped teach at a Health Fair in Costco.  We were teaching about how we as Americans need more fruits and Vegetables
                    "Fruits and Vegetables.....More Matters"

This was our motto of the day.  We were encouraging everyone to also get a variety of colors.
Anyways, there was this lady who was in charge of putting candy on people's tables to try to bribe people to visit the different displays, but for some reason she skipped ours.  When asked why she said, "I don't dare put candy at the nutritionist's table."

Why do people think that nutritionists aren't normal?  We love candy too! The difference is that we have developed the skill of eating healthy portions. Like I said in the last post, I encourage planning in sweets into the diet.  Just make sure they are healthy portion sizes.
