Visualizing Portion Sizes

Picturing portion sizes in your mind can be a valuable tool when trying to control your food intake, whether for weight loss or gain, or to help control cholesterol or blood pressure.  Strive for healthy proportion among the food groups on your plate; one-half of the plate should be covered with fruits and vegetables, ¼ whole grains, and ¼ lean protein and low-fat dairy.

Visualize your portions by using this standard guide:

• 3 oz cooked meat, fish or poultry = 1 box of eight crayons
• 1 cup cooked rice, pasta or cereal = 1 tennis ball
• 1 oz hard cheese  = 1 domino
• 1 medium fruit or 1 cup fruit or vegetable = 1 baseball
• 1 tsp butter = 1 die
• 1 Tbsp peanut butter = 1 ping pong ball
• 1 medium baked potato = 1 computer mouse
• 1 pancake = 1 CD or DVD

It is not just what we eat that counts, but how much of each food.

We are always available for questions or help with the Meal Application for Free or Reduced Price meals.  Please fill this out and send it to us here at Operations, 118 Chapel Heights Road, Sewell, NJ 08080.  You may fill this out at any time during the year if circumstances change.  We want to be sure that every child eats breakfast and lunch.

Please take advantage of the service and convenience we offer.  We offer many choices at lunch and all meals are prepared and served in a sanitary environment.  Our food service employees are trained in Food Safety and Sanitation.  We are happy to serve all students and staff members the healthy foods needed to grow and learn.

We thank you for your support.
