Jamie O on food/diet. Wonderful. #2

The html code I copied to embed the video appears to clip it a little, so here's the direct link.

I thought it was a really powerful talk, the best 21 minutes I've spent in a while. Made me cry a little. He notes right off the bat that diet related diseases are killing alot of people, a ton more than the number of homicides each year, but murder makes the paper, dying of obesity related disease doesn't. His big thing is teaching kids how to cook, to break the cycle of households that don't have cooking as a tradition that gets passed along. Even though I'm a bit too competitive in the kitchen, clearly it's better if people are cooking anything using real ingredients than eating the 'healthiest' fast food. I loved the talk.
