Fresh Tastes Occasional Food Calculator for School Canteens

The Calculator is designed to tell you if a food is considered to be an "occasional" (red) food* for school canteens under the Fresh Tastes @ School Healthy Canteen Strategy

Healthy Kids supports the NSW Government's Fresh Tastes Canteen Menu Planner model for foods sold through NSW school canteens and vending machines.

If your food does not fit into these categories it is not considered to be an 'occasional' (Red) food. All deep fried foods and all confectionery automatically fit in the 'occasional' (red segment).

Choose the category that the food belongs to from the list provided 'Occasional' (red) foods fit into the following categories.
	Hot Food Items
	Savouries, Pastries, Pasta, Pizzas, Oven Baked Potato Products, Dim Sims, Spring Rolls, Fried Rice and Noodles More food included in this category

If your food does not fit into these categories it is not considered to be an 'occasional' (Red) food. All deep fried foods and all confectionery automatically fit in the 'occasional' (red segment).
