In this episode, I'm talking about why labelling food as good vs bad, or healthy vs unhealthy (and all those "guilt-free" and "earn your cheat-day" sayings) doesn't actually work the way we think it does when it comes to teaching children about nutrition. I challenge the thinking around whether certain foods are really "bad" if you enjoy eating them, and I suggest other approaches in the classroom when it comes to nutrition education for kids instead of reaching for those labelled sorting boxes.
