Reason For A Food Revolution

This link that I am posting is about Jamie Oliver explaining why we need a food revolution in the United States and in the school district. He is probably on the top list of people who are against processed food. Oliver has come so far, changing so many peoples lives, changing food decisions in the school district, but yet there are quite a few people that are against Jamie Oliver and his food revolution. I do not understand why people are against it, the food revolution is a positive thing to look at. Yes, it might be a little expensive going over the budget but to be honest I would take that risk spend a little more and get the right kind of food students need to be eating.

Jamie Oliver Giving Parents A Wake Up Call

VERY SPEECHLESS!! 

I don't even know what to say about this, I'm shocked and mostly disgusted. I am glad that Jamie Oliver did the right thing and invited the parents to this event, this was a major wake up call for not only the parents but to the principal of the school.

The differnce (Fresh vs Sprayed)

 Organic foods use no pesticides or genetically modified crops. Processes animals are treated with growth hormones, but with organic animal products, the animals are not subjected to horemone shots. The benefits can include cancer prevention as well as more energy in your everyday life. The organic food would be more beneficial to your body since it hasn't been sprayed on my pesticides.-Maria Rodriguez

Common Pros Vs Cons On organic food

When reading this article  this what I personally took from the points that were being made and googling things are commonly said towards organic food.

-For a start organic food costs a lot more - but that has already been said. It also goes off a lot quicker - but that has already been said, too. If you are talking about buying organic foods in a supermarket - well, they aren't always really organic - but that, too has already been said.


-From that, though, I deduce that organic foods will not feed the hungry. The hungry need less expensive food. The hungry need food that will last longer in the larder. If those aren't negative points enough, then consider this.

-Organic foodstuffs taste better because they ripen more quickly. Supermarkets now sell fruit, for example, that is really fresh - but hasn't had the time to ripen properly and therefore has no flavour.


-The only time that I can see organic food being a good thing is when you are a small gardener and know exactly what you are doing - and harvesting your crop at the right time. Buying from a supermarket is a waste of time and money.

Worst Processed Foods, Shocking

At 1:05 Joann said that 21% of toddlers eat french fries every single day! For some reason I am not surprised, because french fries is the easiest toddlers and chew on. Birthday cake was on that list also and it is a little sad because that's the one thing kid love when in comes to going to a friends birthday, they just love stuffing their face with that butter cream icing and later tasting that rick chocolate cake flavor. AND popcorn! I always thought its was healthy and I never even thought about the chemicals in the plastic bag. That is shocking.
