3. Your next assignment requires you to survey some of the food preferences in your
family. Make a table with three columns. In the left column, record individual needs
(e.g., vegetarian diet, sensitivity to food allergens, need for high-level athletic
performance, and so on). In the middle column, include favorite food items and
meals that all family members can and want to eat. Begin a discussion about ways
to make favorite family foods more healthful. Suggest alternatives and populate the
right column with ideas to improve the foods and meals in the middle column that
your family is currently eating.
