Abstract
Fun and interactive, this activity set raises awareness of the number of empty calories from fat and sugar in many coffee-shop beverages and helps users learn how to choose a healthier cup. By placing the appropriate number of cubes representing empty calories into a cup, users create a powerful display of a particular beverage's calorie content from fat and sugar. Includes eight cups representing hot and cold beverages in small and large sizes, 150 yellow cubes representing fat, 150 white cubes representing sugar, and 24 beverage coasters that provide information about calories from fat and sugar for typical coffee-shop beverages. Also comes with an activity guide that provides detailed instructions for how to use the set for different activities with individuals or groups.
