This is a very straightforward page of a larger Swiss health website (another part of which is the other link for Unit 10, below) covering the different food groups and what they contain in the way of nutritional constituents. Between what they have learnt in Units 8 and 10, students should recognise a lot of the vocabulary here, and there are also numerous photographs illustrating the various kinds of food. The fusée activity is based on the list at the bottom of the page, that gives a conclusion of good everyday health tips for a good diet. These can be combined with the bits of advice on pages 150-51 of the Student's Book. You could also practise using the "Il faut..." construction here.
The main part of this page divides food terms up into various groups, and it would be a useful revision exercise to get students to classify the food vocabulary they have learnt under these headings.

This last website for fusée 1 is aimed at a slightly young audience but at the same time is a richly illustrated alternative look at healthy eating - this time focusing more on what to eat for particular meals. This page is again part of the Swiss "Prevention Web" website, and consists of the picture story of two children being told about a healthy diet by their friend the river. As well as revising food and health terms, this site also gives a glimpse of Swiss-style handwriting!
The activities act as a basic comprehension on what the different frames of the picture story are describing, then gets students to guess which menu is for which meal, and finally asks them to copy out the French dishes from the menu to practise further food vocabulary. This again is a completely static website, so there are numerous opportunities for comprehension tests on the rest of the story line.
