Established custom

By PATRICLA M. BRAMAN Extension Agent, Home Ec. Eating between meals is a well established custom in the United States, particularly among children and teenagers. Food between meals helps some persons to get an adequate diet because they have difficulty in consuming all the calories they need in three meals. On the other hand, snacks have become an important social custom for some who do not need the extra calories they contain. A fact often overlooked concerning food eaten between meals is that this food should be planned for and counted as part of the total amount eaten during the day. It has been estimated that 10 per cent to 15 per cent of a persons daily calories is supplied by snacks Snacks supplying no nutritional value can be labeled “empty foods” contributing only to our bulging waistlines Snacktime coming too close to our regular meals can crowd out nutritious foods and result in poor nutrition.
