Go, Slow, Whoa Cartoon

Lots of kids want to know which foods to eat to be healthy or lose weight. Most kids don’t need to be on diets, but here’s something kids can do to eat healthier: Learn the difference between Go, Slow, and Whoa foods.

Go Foods
These are foods that are good to eat almost anytime. They are the healthiest ones. Example: skim and low-fat milk.

Slow Foods
These are sometimes foods. They aren’t off-limits, but they shouldn’t be eaten every day. At most, eat them several times a week. Example: waffles and pancakes.

Whoa Foods
