Jamie Oliver talks on TED about his "Food Revolution"
http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/765
I thought it's a little depressing, but sometimes it doesn't hurt to hear these numbers again, and I found it thought-provoking. his main point is that change can only start by educating people, because most people don't know how the food they eat affects their body ... and I do love his accent ;) |
I really agree with most everything he said. I remember being in highschool (about 5 years ago) and the most popular item being a double cheeseburger from mcdonals. I was really so excited that it started selling in my school, and i would eat one everyday, with a coke from one of the many vending machines. I would see some people buying 3 or 4 sometimes, with chips and always with a coke. It's very depressing looking back, that my school reinforced such bad eating habits.

I really hope that Michelle Obama succeeds with her mission to change the school food in the US... the kids would be better off! |
I find jaime very dreamy, lol. it's not very hard to listen to his ideas.
I hope he and michelle obama can make some change, but i think a lot of parents have to demand it too. i personally don't know how parents can let this behavior by the usda continue; the schools are killing their kids. |

I'm generalizing a little bit, of course... not everyone is blind to their kids' school lunch menu :) but I do hope that more people realize how important eating healthy is for their kids... |
