Para promocionar una nueva gama de productos Kids Pack Menu, los supermercados Subways realizaron una campaña denominada“The Kid Shopping Experiment”, consistente en encargar la compra a los niños mientras los padres podían verlo a través de una videocámara. Los resultados fueron esperados, los niños llenaron los carros de comida basura, muchos azúcares, helado…
Una acción para demostrar a los padres lo mal educados que están sus hijos a la hora de la alimentación.
Pedalear para ganarse el Bollycao
Que los niños tengan que pedalear para conseguir zumos, batidos, snacks o dulces, una nueva forma de buscar solución a un viejo problema, la obesidad infantil. Ese es el mecanismo de la máquina dispensadora que se ha presentado hoy en el Museo de las Ideas de Barcelona.May 20, 2013
Food education at school?
If every child had the opportunity to learn about, grow and cook food and understand the implications of food waste on the wider community, they’d have the knowledge and tools to lead healthier and more fulfilling lives.
Studies show that:
- The more children learn about food and nutrition, the more likely they are to eat fruit and vegetables
- The more children cook and prepare fresh food from scratch, the more likely they are to appreciate healthier and more varied ingredients
- The more children plant and harvest fruit and vegetables, the more motivated they’ll be to eat them also
That's why jamie Oliver Food Foundation support food education at school.
