- Abstract
Hispanics engage in sports activities and eat out in restaurants just like non-Hispanics and whether the exercise and calorie labels will affect their food choices needs to be determined. Some of the strategies that may be effective include displaying the amount of exercise needed to burn the food calories, rank ordering the food items by calorie content, and showing both calorie content of foods and the recommended calories together.
