Food & Nutrition – Food Tasting

Class 4 had a fantastic time stepping into the role of food tasters as part of their Design and Technology learning. The children explored the taste profiles of a variety of sandwich fillers and breads, developing their understanding of flavour, texture, and combinations.

Everyone showed great enthusiasm and bravery when trying a wide range of foods, discussing their likes and dislikes using descriptive vocabulary. This hands-on experience helped the children think carefully about what makes a balanced and appealing sandwich.

Following their tasting session, the children created their own wish/shopping lists, selecting their favourite ingredients to combine. These choices will support them in meeting the design brief as they move forward to design and make their own healthy sandwiches.

A fun and delicious way to build important food and nutrition skills!
