A high school in urban New Jersey is continuing with its
successful "Team Esteem" program that teaches teens about healthy eating and healthy shopping. Lessons include trips to the grocery store and tours through every section from dairy to meat to produce, and the students learn the basics like eating chicken without the skin to cut fat. Other parts of the program include cooking lessons, lectures and seminars on topics like eating disorders and rape, and a gym class with a variety of different activities including karate and cardio dance.
