Food Revolution!
1st Class Kids hails Jamie Oliver's "Food Revolution"
This is Chef Scott reporting on Jamie Oliver's "Food Revolution" which premiered
tonight on our local ABC affiliate. This was a long awaited program. The episode
definately showed some of what we are working to overcome with our Chefsville
programming.
Let me start by saying we've encountered so many people who support us:teachers,
medical professionals, dietitions, nutritionists, culinary schools, city council
and mayors, school district superintendants, principals, senators and
congresspeople.
However, when we bring our programming to school districts, we found our
challenges. First challenge was to educate the children on the USDA
MyPyramid.gov. Then we add to it fun and exciting relays that get the kids
going. Next kids are introduced to kitchen safety, then finally, cooking and
nutrition.
Jamie started at the grass roots in Huntington, West Virginia by arriving there
and heading into the largest radio station to declare why he was there. Next a
church welcomed Jamie. The pastor invited Jamie to meet a family who definately
needed Jamie's help.
Jamie then proceded to show the family what they eat in a week. He loaded the
table up with the list of junk and processed food. Then he showed them. Of
course it upset the mom, who's huband was a trucker on the road. But this was
necessary, as Jamie wants to join the family in helping them learn to take back
their health.

There is a food revolution in North Texas. This revolution is being run by 1st
Class Kids through their programming called Chefsville. Chefsville is a series
of cooking classes, camps, workshops and cooking expositions designed to help
families revolutionize how they think about food.
1st Class Kids is an educational non-profit that helps families avoid and
overcome obesity. Co-founders Chef Scott and wife Brenda sit on the board of GetKidzFit
which is the biggest health and wellness expo in North Texas.
1st Class Kids is a huge fan of Jamie Olivers. We've been following Chef Jamie and
his work for over 4 years now and stand by to further the cause of childhood
obesity avoidance. There is also a coalition called the Dallas Coalition
for the Prevention of Childhood Obesity in which Chef Scott is a member of.
Chef Scott also sits on the Remington College of Culinary Arts Program Advisory
Committee. These are such honors and this shows how the "Food Revolution" is
being accepted in North Texas through Chef Scott's influence.
