Teach Every Child About Food
This video of a talk by Jamie Oliver is a bit long… but very much worth watching in full.

Finally got a chance to watch this. Great video. It should be shown to every American. It would be especially good for all parents to watch. It baffles me to believe that children don’t know vegetables.
If people would watch this and follow the good advice given, that would be wonderful for us, our children and our childrens children.

Yup – I loved the demos he did, with the wheelbarrow of sugar cubes and piling the table high up with a week’s worth of junk and crap foods. It really drove the point home. It’s easy to rationalize individual meals, but visualizing the cumulative impact really drives the point home.

That is amazing when you put all the weeks food on a table and see what you ate. That table looked especially poor in protein and good fats. Very high in carbs and bad fats. I just wonder if people realize what that does to them.
He is a very good speaker. Hopefully some of the people in the audience got the message.
