As I was browsing through the internet looking for revelant “prevention” themes for this blog, I came across the news about an upcoming series “Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution”, debuting Friday, March 26 (9:00 pm. – 10:00 pm. ET) on ABC.
Jamie Oliver, chef, TV personality and best-selling author began a grass-roots effort to improve the school lunches in the United Kingdom, resulting in a total overhaul of the school dinner program there. He has now turned his attention to America by helping people of all ages eat more balanced meals and cook with fresh ingredients, not only at schools, but also homes, workplaces and even restaurants.
I am very excited about this upcoming show as I know prevention can begin in those very early years. “I believe that every child in America has the right to fresh, nutritious school meals, and that every family deserves real, honest, wholesome food,” says Jamie via his Web site. “Too many people are being affected by what they eat. It’s time for a national revolution. America needs to stand up for better food!”
I would love to hear your comments about Jamie’s “Food Revolution!”
