The Social Side of Eating

Healthy eating is about more than the foods we eat. Canada’s Food Guide emphasizes several aspects related to the social side of eating, including the importance of eating with others, enjoying your food and being mindful of your eating habits. 

Eating Well on a Budget 

With rising food prices, it can be hard to eat well on a budget. This video shares tips on meal planning and saving money at the grocery store.  

Cooking for 1 or 2

Often our cooking habits change as we age, and adjusting to cooking and meal planning for fewer people can be a challenge. This video provides tips on eating well and cooking for one or two people.
