I am not generally a fan of reality tv or truth be told cooking shows. Add to that the fact that I have every reason to hate Jamie Oliver. He is younger and smarter than I am, he cooks better than I do and is eminently more successful. And worse my wife thinks he is cute. But Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution is absolutely brilliant and compelling television. Jamie has put far more than his reputation on the line in his effort to tackle the burgeoning obesity epidemic in America. The guy really cares and he is determined to keep fighting for our benefit. When teenagers take up Jamie’s cause they do so with a vengeance and the viewer can believe that perhaps real change may be brewing in the wake of a passionate chef from the United Kingdom.

Chef’s hats off to Jamie. Watch this show!
