Jamie Oliver: LA School Kids Fed 57 Tons of Sugar Each Week

May 16, 2011

In a new interview Jamie Oliver reveals that by his estimation kids in LA schools consume a whopping 57 tons of sugar each week and are fed something called "pink slime" an absolutely horrible sounding mixture of meat byproducts diluted with ammonia. 

In the interview Oliver talks about his calling to help people eat better and how he was able to make over a previously 600-calorie milkshake with no strawberries into a fresh 200-calorie strawberry packed treat. 

"I was bombarded with people who wanted change," Oliver says. And now he hopes to show people exactly how simple those changes can be.
