If you have the time it really is such a great endeavor. Below are a few highlights from the episode

Schools

• 80% obesity rate in some LA elementary schools
• Jamie to the parents, "You want them to have better than you, yeh?"
• Demonstration where the leftover trimmings from the meat were placed in a centrifuge and spun till the leftovers split from the bone, then water+ammonia were added, meat was minced, and ready to be served to humans (don't have to label ammonia as an ingredient because it is a "process")
• "Pink slime is allowed in any school, in America, by the USDA

 Fast food

•  Deno, the owner of an LA fast food restaurant admits he would never serve the food he serves in his restaurant to his kids
• "But that's why America is screwed" classic American milkshake

Legislation

• "I come from a country where kids drink milk, and they don't have to consume the equivalent of a candy bar when they do so" 
• "We're doing a great show about how people don't give a *" 

Filled a bus and more with the sugar added in one week to the LA school districts meals
