Food Being Taught To Children

So food has been the topic lately. I've been searching up information about kids being taught food and why it is important. It basically says that kids are our future and the food that people give them today is so unhealthy that it will shorten their life span by at least 10 years. That was said from Jamie Oliver who did a Ted Talk about teaching kids food. He also gave statistics about how many people die from obesity and diabetes. More than there are homicides. I've found a lot of interesting information about what food is doing to kids bodies and how to prevent it. The articles pretty much just talk to the parents of the children and what they should be doing and not doing with their child. Jamie talks about everything though. He talks about how people should be cooking at home again how it used to be and how school should also be teaching children about food. He gave some good points. I suggest watching it.

  1. I agree with you about how the newer generations of Childeren are less healthy because there are so many more unhealthy options. There are many more unhealthy snacks like hot Cheetos and different candies that haven't been around as long and as relavent as they are in today's society. Childeren are much less educated about the effects of food and what they do to their bodies. It is important for the newer generations to be educated or else there will be a much less healthy population to come.
