Heyo - welcome to the LAST EVER episode of Don’t Salt My Game ???? (dw - I have something else very cool in the works and I’ll share details in this podcast feed when it’s ready at the end of summer). 

Our final guest is Kelly Fullerton - a nutritionist and primary school teacher from Melbourne, Australia - who is challenging conventional and dogmatic approaches to how we teach kids about food. In this episode we break down:

• Why traditional nutrition education isn’t developmentally appropriate

• The unintended consequences of teaching things like grams of fat in cheese or number of sugar cubes in drinks

• We break down why ‘sometimes’ food and ‘everyday’ foods are just a version of ‘good/bad’
• We talk about how kids actually learn about food and how teachers can engage kids’ natural curiosity, their culture, and the broader context that kids eat

This was a fun episode to go out on - I hope you’ll share it with parents and teachers in your life! And I’m excited to share lots of cool new things with you soon.
