Pretend you are a young athlete who needs 600 kilocalories for breakfast and who wants to get at least 83 grams of carbohydrate, not more than 20 grams of fat and about 9 grams of fibre.

As you choose foods, watch the advise from Grandma (at the top of the menu) and note the reason why she says what she says. Also as you choose foods, you can watch the number of grams of carbohydrate and so on displayed below the menu as well as the % of calories from carbohydrate and fat. If you try and keep the % of calories from carbohydrate near 55% and calories from fat below 30%, you will find it easier to achieve the goals. The background colour of the menu (green when near the goal and red when far from it) and the music (upbeat near the goal and slow when far from it) help tell you how well you are doing.
