Show Nu tri tion kno wledge Ys; sometimes hit and myth By DENNIS HINKAMP For a nation of people obsessed with diet and fitness, we hare some odd conceptions about good nutrition. How many of the following statements do you take for granted as be ing, true?: milk is nature's most perfect food, a day without orange Juice is like a day without sunshine, fast food is junk food, catsup is not a vegetable and stuffing is better than potatoes. According to Dr. Von T. Menden-hal- l, Extension nutrition specialist in Utah State University's college of family life, we begin to hear some statements so often that we believe them without question. For instance: He says milk is a great food, but it doesnt exactly cover the four food groups. At least not as well as foods such as pizza or tacos. They contain dairy products in the cheese, grains in the shell or crust, vegetables in tomato sauce or taco topping and meat. These are close to being perfect foods. But aren't these fast foods? Yes, Mendenhall says, but not all fast food is junk food. Conversely, not all "nautral" food is health food. Orange juice is a natural food and high in vitamin C, but it is also relatively high in sugar. Some inconclusive research has linked taking vitamin C to the tune of 2,500 mg per day (the current recommended dietary allowance for adults is 60 mg per day) to preventing colds. What is conclusive though, is to get the amount of vitamin C called for to prevent colds you'd have to eat the equivalent of a half case of orar.ges per day. If you are interested in vitamin C in a "natural" juice with fewer calories, you should consider tomato juice, he says. Speaking of tomatoes, Mendenhall says a certain member of president administration got in Reagan's trouble for having the audacity to suggest that catsup be considered a vegetable in the school lunch program. Isnt that processed? Don't they use a lot of that at those fast food places? The answers are "yes" and "yes", but does that make it bad? a third-cu- p Actually he says of catsup (106 calories) compares of corn or favorably to a half-cu- p peas (also 106 calories) in nutrients per calorie. So, when you see someone dumping catsup on their french Catsup! c?jrnr J 4 Thursday, June 4, 1987. Page r fries you might congratulate them for fortifying the french fries. Mendenhall says someone is al- ways trying to replace the humble, but sometimes boring, potato with something else. Rice could be a replacement, but then you're substituting a grain food group for a vegetable food group. Stuffing Is the newest idea to replace potatoes but again you're changing food groups. You are also substituting a much higher calorie food. Mendenhall says many of our misabout food come understandings from our desire to label them as bad or good foods. It doesn't sell books," but eating a variety of foods is still the most useful advice concerning diet and health.

The Institute for Educational Leadership has some things to say about the typical American school board and has Issued a new report, 'School Boards: Strengthening Grassroots Leadership," which offers a checklist any parent can use to evaluate Its school board's effectiveness.
