Jamie Oliver's 'Food Revolution' Undaunted By Obstacles In LA


Strangely, in America, we can't seem to figure out why we've never been fatter or sicker. Jamie, can't wait to see the show! I'm psyched the administra­tors wouldn't let you film. It will add to your free publicity and bring about REAL change by exposing the hypocracy.

To several posters, have you ever wondered why your child's school lunch menu can offer four choices of cow's milk (including chocolate) but not water. It's 'cuz the federal government (USDA that reimburses school lunch programs) sees "no nutritional value in water" and won't let it be offered as a beverage choice. (Wonder what industry got that on the menu?)

How can we (parents) establish healthy eating habits when we're up against these subsidized factory farms producing fake frankenfoo­d. (Our 11 year old begged me to make him lunch every day until our school starting serving "real" food.) For some children, lunch is the "healthies­t" meal they'll get all day.

Take a look at what's considered junk food at your school.

Here's a hint: Hi-C Blast (sugar water) vs.Seltzer Water (carbonate­d water)
