I actually saw the Jamie Oliver special series that showed him trying to change the cafeteria food, and some of the most disturbing thing that I found were that the kids could not name some vegetables when they were shown it (IE. Celery). Whats worse is that some interviews with the parents showed that they just fed their kids what they wanted aka what the schools fed them. The grossest story was when Oliver was talking to a doctor where he told a story of a kid that came in that did not get enough fibre in his diet because of the foods he was getting at school and home, basically the kid got really constipated and since waste had to leave the body he threw it up .

I don't think things are nearly that bad here in Canada don't know about the States, but we should definately change things now so that they do not become that way in the future.
