Nutritional Facts at Cafeteria Project

User: City Tech students, staff and anyone eating at the City Tech cafeteria will be impacted by this health changing proposal.

Context: When we go to cafeteria everyday there isn’t any nutritional information displayed anywhere about the food being served for students and staff. The cafeteria does not offer enough healthy choices and in order to keep our brain and body running well we need to fuel it with healthy foods.

Motivation: The students and staff are making misinformed decisions on nutritional choices because the cafeteria does not offer any nutritional information about the food they serve. If this information is shown more students will be aware of what kind of diet and calories their consuming everyday at City Tech.

Solution: On the school’s website we can create a menu with all the nutritional content in the food that is being served every day. A flat screen monitor can be place around the cafeteria counter, displaying the menu and showing the food with their nutritional content. (Ex. Calories, Vitamins, Cholesterol)

Outcome: By providing the nutritional facts about the food being given at the City Tech cafeteria students and staff will acknowledged more what they are eating and make healthier choices. The way it will be  designed will  teach everyone to eat healthier foods. Doing this the school could help combat obesity with these changes and improve the eating lifestyle of many students.
