The food we eat and why it's killing us


Check this out. TED prize winner Jamie Oliver educates the world on our most devastating oversight; dietary health.

Things are speeding up, budgets are getting cut, and the food we're eating is considerably worse, and more over-processed than it was just a couple of decades ago. Why are vending machines filled with garbage? Why does it cost so much to eat well. How many college students cook meals vs. grab taco bell for dinner?

"If I came here with a cure for AIDS or cancer you'd all be fighting and scrambling [to see it]. [Obesity] is preventable. We've got a problem here, and we need to reboot."

Jaimie really hits the nail on the head with this talk. Check out his website here.
