Jamie Oliver: Teach our children about food

As soon as this was talked about in the class, I knew this would be the Ted to watch. I had seen Jamie Oliver's T.V. show about trying to change the eating habits of a town in West Virginia. The show was eye opening to me and my family. The Ted video was great as it teaches that all bad food habits can be changed globally by individuals educating children about food and what is healthy to eat, and if this happens in the home then it will carry on to the next generations.I think that it is already taking place in some of the schools locally. My daughter's summer reading list included a book called Chew on This : by Charles Wilson and Eric Schlosser. This book is about the fast food companies and basically how awful and unhelathy the food is that comes from them. To me this a great foundation to build on in addition to what my wife and family try to instill in her of healthy eating habits. This video is definitly one you should watch.
