Card 4. Talk to your partner about food for 2 minutes. The following questions will help you organize your conversation: What food do you usually eat for breakfast? What does a healthy pyramid mean? What kind of food is more useful for your body/brain? Why do people eat much fast food? What health problems can people get eating junk food?

I usually have porridge or cereal, an egg, a sandwich and tea for breakfast. Sometimes I eat fruit or yoghurt too.

A healthy food pyramid is a guide that shows which foods we should eat more often and which foods we should eat less often. We need plenty of vegetables, fruit, cereals and water. Meat, fish, dairy products and nuts are also useful, but we should eat sweets and fatty food only sometimes.

Fruit, vegetables, fish, nuts and whole-grain products are useful for both the body and the brain. They give us vitamins, energy and help us concentrate at school.

People often eat fast food because it is cheap, tasty, easy to buy and quick to eat. However, junk food usually contains too much salt, sugar and fat. Eating it too often can cause tooth decay, excess weight, stomach problems and heart diseases.
