HELLO and welcome to this week’s Journal Gang page.

This week I learned all about where food comes from and how to eat healthily.

I love chocolate and sweets more than anybody but I also know that it is so important to eat well and have fruit and veg.

Personally, I am trying to have a vegetarian January, which has been hard but also really rewarding because I am eating all types of food that I wouldn’t have even considered trying before.

One vegetable I am learning to love is butternut squash.

You can eat it with just about anything and it is super tasty.

Now I know most of you just let your mums and dads get on with the cooking but helping to make food is really fun.

You can make anything from ice cream to beef burgers – but most of all, you will have great fun!
