“I wish for everyone to help create a strong, sustainable movement to educate every child about food, inspire families to cook again and empower people everywhere to fight obesity.” -Jamie Oliver
For his contributions to better eating at school, his social enterprise restaurant Fifteen and his vision to change the way kids eat at home and at school, TED has awarded Jamie Oliver their 2010 prize.
“We’ve got to start teaching our kids about food in schools. Period.”
Foodfacts.com finds it admirable that someone on a food and nutrition mission could win such a high-profile media-intensive award. Please take a few minutes and listen to Jamie’s TED talk about kids’ health, school lunches, how you as a parent (or teacher, auntie or uncle) can take concrete actions to help your kids make better nutritional choices.
This is a powerful wake-up call for all of us. Not just kids.
Get involved by seeing what food is being served to your kids at school. Talk to the lunch ladies, the principal, the PTA and the school board and tell them you want quality, fresh, healthy food served at school.
It’s proven that real food promotes more effective learning. If you want better health for your kids the junk food must leave the school. And yes, that means chocolate milk too!
