• Suggestions for Using Fat Balloons
• Have students list examples of food that contain
  the type of fat they have illustrated.
• Use the balloons as a visual when discussing the
  types of fat used in recipes in the laboratory.
• For fun have fat building races and see who can
  build their molecule the fastest and the most
  accurate Then give then a Fat Prize.
