Series Review: What's in Your Fast Food?This series has information specific to each food as well as some general nutrition information to help the reader make a meal more nutritious. If a child reads only one book in the series, they will probably have more knowledge about nutrition than the average adult. Preservatives, additives, and sodium content are all explained as important parts of processed foods, giving a very even-handed look at fast food. Rather than trying to convince kids not to eat it, the author shows how to add more nutrition to the meal. Looking at the nutrition label is important. The series speaks to children without preaching about real foods kids love.Library Media ConnectionSeries Review: What's in Your Fast Food?With a message that fast food is best enjoyed in moderation, these no-nonsense titles will get kids thinking before they bite.School Library JournalRL
