Brief talk about food groups and balanced diet before splitting into teams. Teams are assigned food group and given pictures of foods/food wrappers and packaging. They must match the correct foods to the food group. A quiz/discussion will follow about more general healthy eating.

Instructions
Split into teams. Allocate a feed group to the team or let them discuss what food group they will be “cooking” with. Form lines opposite plates ie one pizza per team
In relay, young people run to the “store” to buy ingredients (pictures of food or food cartons and wrappers) and rush back to build their pizza on their plate.
When all members have had a turn, stop and count how many food items in their category are on their plate. Team with correct items wins.
Continue activity - reverse the relay to return items to the store.
Evaluate in a log chew.
