GCSD
|
What is the Choose Sensibly Program? |
| Choose
Sensibly is a campaign initiated by the New York
State School Food Service Association to provide
support to member schools as they seek to change
customer buying patterns. By adopting standards for
snacks which support the Dietary Guidelines, and
identifying those choices for their customers,
school food service departments hope to educate
students to make wise choices for snacks. |
|
What are the standards for Choose Sensibly? |
To be
considered a sensible choice, a snack should
contain:
- 7 grams or less of fat
- 2 grams or less of saturated fat
- 15 grams or less of sugar
- 360 milligrams or less of sodium
