“Ugly” Food and Food Waste | Cyberchase

Jackie wants to make her perfect pumpkin pie for Giving Thanks Day, but all the “perfect” pumpkins are gone! All that’s left on the farm are dented pumpkins and lots of “ugly” produce that no one wanted to buy. This video from Cyberchase teaches students that “ugly” looking produce tastes the same and is just as healthy as produce that looks “perfect.” Support materials include fruit and vegetable cards, discussion questions, vocabulary, and a blind taste test activity.
