I think they would have to see the two stereotypical food types "Good" and "Bad" an apple and a candy bar for example. You could cut them both up into 2 estimated sections on their "densities" (The apple, a very large section representing nutrients and the candy bar a very large section representing energy and a very small section for nutrients.) That is about the best I've got. I know when I was a kid I loved when things were explained visually and I know I always paid more attention whenever the teacher had candy. ;)
