Very good but basic information. This class covers some good solid skills everyone should have for reading labels and preparing their own meals at home.

This course was very informative. The videos were a plus for visual learners. The segments were not too lengthy to one loose focus. Well done.

Interesting Course. Stanford should Coursera Plus. Stanford Courses are not the best and they ask for money in order to get the certificate.

Ágil y fácil de seguir. Tal vez algunos contenidos se repiten y se centra únicamente en las reglamentaciones de USA, igualmente es muy útil.

Was hoping for more in-depth information on nutrition. Either than that, the course was well assembled and the videos were worth watching.

Many of the recipies should avoid chicken broth, we don't want to add artitificial flavor and sodium. Cook chicken could be enough.

It is nicely prepared & delivered, but it is very very basic. So only for people with no or very little knowledge on nutrition.
