Hulu - Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution: Episode 3 - Watch the full episode now.

This show seems to have the right idea about changing the social environment through food:


I remember my own cafeteria experiences at school as being some of the worst food experiences of my life. The problem of food for our children is real, and prevalent, and highlights the problem with factory-farmed and over-processed food: it kills people. Lots of people. This adds a new urgency to the mission of the this blog. The enjoyment of fresh food is not simply a hedonistic pleasure, an extra to be enjoyed by the few. Fresh foods are vital to life, health, and well-being, and should be something that every child in America has access to. There's a lot at stake, and Oliver is fighting against the entrenched propaganda of decades, an entire way of life based around the idea that it is all right to feed children bad food.
