Reading Labels
In this video, several teens try to make healthy food choices. They read the front of a container, but find out that the label on the back tells a different story. Watch the video and see what they learn.
As you saw, food labels can tell you about the sugar and nutrients in your foods and drinks. When the teens look at the fruit drink label, they read that it has 18 grams of sugar in one serving. The relationship between the number of grams of sugar in the fruit drink and the number of servings in the container is called a ratio. In this case, the ratio is written as 18 grams/1 serving.
This ratio is the same, no matter how much of the fruit drink there is. When the teens notice that the serving size is 8 ounces but that there are two servings per container, they do some quick math to figure out that there are 36 grams of sugar in the fruit drink container.
The serving size for each drink is different from the number of servings per container. In one to two sentences, explain why the teens think this is confusing.
