A proper diet has a huge impact both on human growth and maintaining a good physical and psychological wellbeing. The paper presents assessment of correctness and quality of menu in a kindergarten in Koszalin, Poland. Contents of protein, energy, fat and carbohydrate were calculated in 30 daily food rations. Their quality was also assessed. Very high irregularities were noted in relation to standards, the consumption of energy, protein and carbohydrates, which may lead to irregular food/eating habits in the adulthood. The results indicate the need for nutrition education among workers of kindergartens.
