Shopping and Cooking with confidence
The aim of this course is to encourage the adoption of a healthier diet by developing new shopping, eating and budgeting skills. It is an invaluable resource for you and your clients
We all shop for food, whether in supermarkets, local shops or in markets. However, do we make the best choices, and do we understand what labels are actually telling us? It can be a real minefield... most of us shop regularly and seldom change our pattern of shopping behaviour. But changing our choice of brand, products or where we shop can make a big difference to budget and our health.
The course looks in depth at how to read labels and understand what is in our food, how marketing affects our choices and how to make informed choices about new products and ingredients. The information is complemented by a cookery demo/cooking session using products bought in-store.
Topics covered include:
- Improving diet
- Enjoying cooking and eating on a budget
- Making more informed choices about the food we buy
- Learning how to read labeling
- Marketing and how it affects our buying patterns
