Food

In the video Food Revolution Jamie Oliver goes to L.A. in the hopes he can get a look at what their schools are feeding their kids. By seeing what the schools put into their lunches he hopes to inspire a better menu. He faces many obstacles while trying to obtain entrance into the public schools or even access to their central office kitchens. In order to get around this he opens his kitchen to parents to show the lack of nutritional value in the public school food, he has sugar poured into a bus to illustrate the amount of sugar ingested by students through chocolate milk, and he hands out cold lunches to students who would otherwise select cafeteria food. Through small suggestions and changes, Oliver hopes to make a big impact in the way public schools feed children. Since I myself am a student, I find it disturbing how unhealthy some of the stuff is. We learn what eat by example and if we are feed unhealthy foods then we learn to eat unhealthy foods.
