Default Jamie Oliver's Petition

Some of you probably saw the series Jamie's School Dinners series OR may have seen Jamie Parkinson last night?

Anyway, if you didn't the site explains all.

We need the goverment to change the guidlines etc., on school dinners... people in prisons and dog food have better food than the children our schools!!!!!

121000 signitures so far, so let's help him!!

http://www.feedmebetter.com/

I think it's a worthwhile cause, if young children carry on eating the way they do now they will die before their parents!!

Alot of us here know how it feels to have to watch our diet because of our symptoms of PCOS, Diabetes etc., so it was something I thought people here would want to contribute to so hopefully not so many of our children will be in these situations

Just back from signing the petition--thanks for the tip. I worked in a school canteen for 9 years and in that time, the standards fell every year. Our budget was cut, our hours cut, year after year, it was totally demoralising. Lat's hope the reaction to Jamie's campaign makes the government realise at long last that something has to be done.

Default i saw the name

not to change the subject, but didn't i read somewhere or hear on one of his tv shows when his wife was having their baby that she has pcos??

the petition is a great idea, esp when it is a name/person that people on both sides of the ocean recognizes

have a great week

I've never been a big fan of his, but after watching the show I've got great respect for him. The attitude of some of the parents in the show shocks me. Complaining about him taking away burgers and chips. Surely they want healthy children??

What shocked me was hearing about parents shoving McDonalds through the fences to the kids!

They're probably just worried that if their kids start enjoying healthy food at school they'll want it at home, too.
