This revolution is starting in the US, aiming to change our perceptions of lifestyle and food. We have a growing trend towards organic foods. And, it makes sense; why not eat delicious and healthy food? I find that in China, most of the food and the dishes are healthy-a balance of vegetables, meats, and grains. But, there is also a growing popularity of fast food in China which could be feeding the next generations with French fries, hamburgers, and fried chicken. But, Im not advocating not eating these foods.
Like what my group member said and wrote so well: The Delicious Revolution isnt asking us to start a crusade. Its asking us to enjoy our food, and giving others, especially kids, a chance to truly enjoy food as well. Its not even asking us to be selfless. But if theres one thing that would change my mind, its probably this. Dont eat something that wont make you happy. Its something that each of us can do very well. And Alice Waters and her Edible Garden show each week that eating well makes a difference.
While it was difficult to start my speech, I had no trouble with the rest. It was something that I was passionate about, something that I understood. So, I forgot about fears. I forgot about those stupid jitterbugs. I wanted to talk. I wanted to share these powerful ideas and messages. I wanted to be heard. And, really, we all should.
