Food Revolution

If you haven't seen Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution--you need to! It's on Fridays at 9/8c on ABC. He's fighting the tough battle of getting the processed, unhealthy foods out of schools and replacing them with nutritious, homemade school lunches. After the TV series is finished, Jamie and his team (one of the exec. producers being Ryan Seacrest) will be taking a petition to D.C. in hopes of waking the government up to this massive issue and demanding change. Take 2 seconds to sign the petition and fight childhood obesity. The show is awesome and Jamie's cause is worth supporting; this generation of children is the first in history to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents. Sad, right? Sure, the government budget is tight, but the health of our nation is crucial and worthy of being a priority. Right now healthy foods are far more expensive than processed junk--let's change that! Seriously though, at the very least, watch the show--it's inspiring!
