Jamie Oliver is really passionate about making sure that kids get healthy food. Really passionate. He has even, in recent weeks, been known to call parents who feed their kids junk foods a few less-than-complimentary names. As a result of his very bluntly voiced opinions, his popularity is on something of a yo-yo, as people are alternately pleased and offended by his level of concern. One of his shows, Jamie's School Dinners, is about to go into its second season in the UK and its first in Australia, though there doesn't seem to be a scheduled air date in the US in the very near future. The show was, and still is, intended to reveal how inadequate school-prepared meals are, in terms to quality and nutrition.
With the popularity of Super Size Me, Fast Food Nation and Chew On This, the show appeals to anyone who is interested in health, nutrition and what kids are eating. It's probably only a matter of time before the show makes it into the US, too. If you haven't seen it yet, and want to get a feel for the program's content, take a look at the video clip after the jump, which features Jamie showing some kids what exactly goes into those salty little bits of breaded and fried processed meat: chicken nuggets.
