fun. also, the simpsons' 'ingredients of a hot dog' clip might be relevant: i'd have to take out the anorexia girl in her underwear. there's no way i could effectively explain what anorexia means while they're losing their minds over the half-naked chick on screen.
This went over pretty well man, thanks. I took off the last part of the worksheet that had kids inventing their own strange food though, my boys will just end up hitting each other and doing nothing if I did that. Definitely changed the baby eating cake picture as well, even my co-teacher thought it was dookie. I just added some more guessing the calories for things like corn dogs, tuna kimbap and spicy ramyun at the end. They dug that.
After the Strange Food lesson, I showed this video from Man Vs Wild. He eats a live Giant Grub that explodes as he chews it. Got a HUGE reaction from the kids. After showing the video, I asked them if they think it's delicious, ok, or disgusting. They would all scream disgusting! maybe 1 or 2 clowns would say delicious. Try it! ;)
