It is sad. But I let my kids watch so that they can see that there is a reason that I insist that they eat a balanced diet and that we rarely have fast food or other processed foods and that it isn't just Mommy that knows it isn't healthy to be that way. It is sad, not only because we are a nation that is eating ourselves to death, but that it has to be a revolution in order for us to sit down to a decent dinner once a week (as the revolution asks you to pledge.) How freaky Chez Mayhem is to have family dinner every night. What we need to work on is the family walk around the block once a week.What are you going to work on?

I watched one of the first episodes and was thoroughly depressed. Just today, I bought bags and boxes of crap for school snacks and I think I will start there - no more processed foods for snack time. YUCK.
As a vegan I'm already scrutinizing food labels every time I'm at the Big Bird--I've not been watching but did see something on Today on this idea. I agree with Rani, the one area I could start in on is cutting back on the processed foods. Good luck!
Heather- haven't seen/heard from you in a while. I hope all is well with you and the family. . .
:O)
