Did you catch the premiere of Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution last night?
Don't worry if you missed it, it really kicks off with a 2-hour event this Friday (the 26th).
Jamie is a British celebrity chef who has started a 'revolution' within the public school system of his homeland, and is spurring one on our side of the pond as well. His challenge is the city labeled "the unhealthiest in America," where more than 50% of the population is OBESE. The town that is also known for "We are MARSHALL;" Huntington, West Virginia.
You'll be amazed to see what is fed in the public school system (pizza for breakfast?) and the guidelines they must abide by (each meal should include TWO grains, each student MUST have milk [good idea, but they all pick high-sugar chocolate or strawberry]).
I encourage you to check it out. It will challenge you to think more about what you serve your family and who you allow to make health/nutrition decisions for your children.
Become part of the revolution!!
Have a HEALTHY day!
