This eleven year old, homeschooled boy knows more about what’s going on in the food industry than most adults I know, and he wants to help bring change. (Go Birke!) And what he says is so right! What big food corporations are doing to our food is downright creepy!!! It’s time we stopped letting advertisers and corporations tell our kids (and us) what to eat. Watch this video clip with your kids – you’ll be glad you did.
And if your kids are still saying, “But I want some chicken nuggets…” show them what they’re made of – it’ll REALLY gross them out!!
Mechanically Separated Poulty – eewww!
Wow – I’ll have to think through the content of that as I was too focused on his delivery. Very impressive speech. I’m going to use that as a teaching tool – my kids have to write and deliver a speech in 2 weeks time. I wonder if showing this would encourage them to aim high or would it discourage them???? mmmm…. hopefully encourage.
Wasn’t he amazing? Simi said, “That could be me!” (he’s 11 too)… Definitely a teaching tool for the kids! 😀
Amazing delivery – and yes he has a message most adults need to hear. i’m going to share that.
I saw the pink paste thing on telly the other day. GROSS!
