They'll lose money if it's more expensive. I mean the lunch supervisor, if she saves money, it's a bonus for? her. More work to prepare fresh food. The excuses go on and on.

No wonder why those oldbags look f**kin old, ugly cows, birdbrain!!! They dont want any changes to their diet n? dont give a s**t to young people.

(cont. 3/3) She refuses to improve the lunches even though we, unlike Huntington, have the money to do it. Of course she has raised the prices of school lunches though. The most we've been able to get is a healthier option of salad, sandwiches and fruit sides, most of which are of? terrible quality and usually stale. She also wasted a massive amount of money on finger scanners to replace lunch cards for reasons no one understands.
(cont.) with the ...
(cont.) with the kind of treatment WV is used to getting from the media. Going in saying you are going to fix the fattest city in America is NOT how you go about winning defensive people to your side. He should have started in another city, like LA, or NYC, then worked his way to WV and come in with less fan fare.
Also,? I am worried. My school has tried several times to get healthier lunches, but the woman in charge of choosing the food and menu is a massive b***h.
I'm not criticizing ...
I'm not criticizing him for wanting to help. I? just think he should have bothered to learn something about the area before he went there. That probably would have been a much better approach. You can't help people make an effective change if you don't know anything about them or understand the circumstances of their situation.
If you read further back you would have noticed I said I like that he's trying to help, I just think he kind of messed up by starting in WV, especially

That? is why I pack a lunch, so I don't have to eat pre-cooked s**t like that.

He doesn't need to spend time here to know that "sodium benzoate, zinc oxide, ferrous sulfate, copper gluconate" and many other things don't need to be in food that children (or adults for that matter) are consuming. You stated you live in WV, the fattest state in the Union. You're the first person who should be worried about what kids are eating, but instead? you criticize "foreigners" coming into the state and trying to change things for the better because.. why?

I like this English guy, I think he's doing a great job and as he points out, there are crappy? food in England.

Yet they still know what fresh meat is. I lived there some time and still u can find fresh ingredients although they are truly expensive. I saw people is growing fat, the situation is bad and goes for worse.... but the problem hasn´t gotten any closer yet to? the dimensions it has reached in US. people in England is fat, but people in The United States is REALLY fat
That? sounds about ...
That? sounds about right.
The problem is ...
The problem is these ladies have ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL over what they prepare for lunch and no power to change it. All of that is? done by the county and school district. They have a person in charge of planning the menu, buying the food, and all that. My school, in WV, tried to improve our menu because the food was less healthy than most fast food. We petitioned, argued, and begged, he woman in charge, a monstrous b***h named Beverly, wouldn't budge an inch on the matter.
I was kind of ...
I was kind of hoping he would have done some research on the area before he went there. On it's history, culture, people, economic situation. I also think the people working with him on this could have pointed it out, but they probably saw an opportunity for great TV and ran with it.. It's also a good examples of why it's not a great idea to? have a foreigner come in and try to reform a place without having spent any significant time there before hand.
you can still get? ...
you can still get? groceries that aren't labelled as "organic". Even Jamie said himself, even just getting food and cooking it yourself is way better than eating processed food. Regular groceries is not expensive
how would? he have ...
how would? he have known that? he's British
ok?

No, Jamie cooks ...
No, Jamie cooks healthy because he doesn't use chemicals in his food.?
(3/3) Believe it or ...
(3/3) Believe it or not, most West Virginians love WV,? and they're proud of it. To constantly have it shamed, made the butt of so many jokes, and to be treated like those jokes are true makes a people guarded. Had you said WV is IN a reprehensible state I would have agreed. It is. That's why I completely support what Jamie is trying to do. I think he started in the wrong place though. He should have saved Huntington for midseason and gone in with less fan fare.
(2/3) I'm not ...
(2/3) I'm not surprised people weren't? open to Jamie, a life time of being treated like an uneducated hick any time I leave the state or meet someone from out of state has made me wary about things like this. When they heard he was coming to "the fattest city in America" to help them clean up their diet they probably thought the same thing I thought, "Oh joy, someone else who's coming here to insult us and treat us like a bunch of inbred hillbillies."
