What's On Your Plate?



Good Start...
Excellent documentary for kids to understand the importance of their diet and where their food comes from. Infact half of the grown ups in US need to watch this documentary since when it comes to diet, they are as clueless as kids otherwise they would not be obese, overweight, out of shape, with so many health problems. This would be a good documentary for the Congress of America, which supports the big agriculture companies with no respect for soil, small farmers, this planet, and the true cost of obesity in US. Sorry, they do understand, but they are more interested in their pocket books instead of what they are retained to do which is representing the citizens of this beautiful country. Bravo.

Every Family Should Have a Copy
This is a very informative documentary about what families are eating. Much of the focus is on the difficulty of getting good fresh organic food in a large city and in school systems. Farmers markets, local farming and meal planning are discussed along with the medical effects of our fast-food culture. I enjoyed watching this all from the perspective of people who are young and actually asked very good questions about the way food is grown and distributed in our country as well as around the world.

Great for 5th Grade Class
Love the entire video. Goes great with our study of nutrition. I would watch the film in two seatings, in the future. This is for discussion time and the time the 10-11 year olds can sit and pay attention. Love it, love it, love it!
