Did anyone watch Jamie Oliver's?
Food Revolution last night. His new season (8 episodes) started last night, and he's doing the Los Angeles school district.
I learn so much from him, and mine and my parents diets have changed because of him. From the first season, we no longer eat any "pressed" chicken. And now seeing and hearing about the "pink sludge" -disgusting.
Did you watch, what did you think?
Re: Did anyone watch Jamie Oliver's?
Snuggle.
I watched. I love him and his show. I gave up pressed chicken after last season and almost all beef after seeing food inc.
what is fed to kids at school pisses me off to no end. It ALMOST makes me want to homeschool, seriously...
They've started this crap around here where you need a docs note to bring your lunch to school...hope that goes out the window before my kids get to school b/c they will not be eating the crap they serve.
a doctor's note? what on earth? what grounds do they have to force your child to eat what they're serving?
i watched last season and really liked it. I'm glad you told us about it. I don't see commercials, so I had no idea he was doing another season. I'll have to watch on hulu tonight
Before I read your last paragraph, I said to myself,"when I was a kid, my Mom packed our lunch every day bc one it was cheaper and two she knew what we would be eating."
It is unbelievable to me that they are making kids bring a docs note to bring a packed lunch. I have never heard of that!!! I wonder if the reasoning behind that is food allergies.
I cant bring myself to watch Food inc yet, Im too scared. Im already super picky about my food, and I know I would go into full fledged vegan after seeing it. I would love to buy all organic, local meats but it's not in our budget. Im scared to even think about buying ground sirloin at the grocery anymore.
It's not in all schools, but some want a docs note. So that sends parents running to the docs for a note that says their kid has a milk allergy or something even if they don't. Vivi really does have a milk allergy, so I won't have to worry for her.
It's the kids who have parents who don't care that really brakes my heart. Sometimes school food is the only food they get...and it's JUNK! they may as well give them Coke and cake...
Kellie, do you have a local grocery store that grinds their own meat? we're lucky that we have an awesome locally own grocery chain here that cuts and grinds all their own meat. You can buy off the shelf, but you can also get them to cut or grind it right there for you while you wait and you can see what they do. I can't bring myself to eat any beef that I'm not sure comes from 1 cow anymore.
They want the MONEY MONEY MONEY. They want you to have to buy they lunches they 'make' read:heat up.
All of the larger grocery stores here already have it ground prepackaged or in the case.
There is one local "food mart" that I have gotten them to ground up some ground sirloin for me fresh...but they did it in the back and when I cooked it at home it wasnt so great.
Im definitely going to have to dig deeper and find somewhere locally that will ground it fresh in front of me, because I cant live without eating a burger, meatballs or a taco salad! LOL
