The Food Revolution is on! The always entertaining Jamie Oliver is expounding on the lack of nutrition education in America and the world. You may have seen Jamie Oliver on ABC where his food revolution is aired.
Application: I see Jamie Oliver as a little extreme! However, I do not have health problems, I am healthy. I think there is a lot of validity in what he is talking about. What are the biggest political problems in America? The only reason I would share this speech is because I believe that education and health are vital to living a happy, purpose filled life. Jamie says that we are not healthy because we are not educated on health issues. That is true! So I am in, lets educate our students on how to eat and live healthy because that will help us achieve the ultimate goal.
