Eat Your Vegetables! / Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution

In this television series, British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver goes to Huntington, W.Va., to help people eat better. The city was recently singled out by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as the nation's unhealthiest. Oliver starts his "revolution" by attempting to change the menus at grade school and high school cafeterias which are serving mostly processed foods. These foods "meet" regulations, but Oliver knows they are unhealthy choices for the kids.

I don't think it's the best show. Oliver is a bit annoying and self-centered...sometimes it seems like he is just playing to the camera with fake tears, but his message is a positive one. The health of our children should be a concern. If you can get over Oliver's hard-to-like personality it is with total confusion that you'll watch a group of kindergartners try to figure out which fruits and vegetables Oliver is holding up...they have no clue what the strange objects are...oh it's round so it must be an orange! Just watch to see how wrong they are.

This series is a definite eye opener to the problem of obesity and how starts with what parents and schools are feeding the children.
