Did you ever see the series he did called "Jamie at Home"? He sometimes cooked in his outdoor wood-fired oven, like for pizza! He also has an amazing organic garden. However, he does have help in maintaining it

The Food Revolution shows he did in that West Virginia town were great, too. I haven't seen the one done in LA yet, but recall that the school district there backed out at the last minute, almost literally. Bureaucratic cowards! Somehow they managed to sway the district to let them in anyway, though my guess is with a loss of creative control.

I'm glad that TED picked him for their prize. It really helped "bring home" the problem in our schools and society in general. We need a similar food revolution in the world of community gardens Maybe even get people to grow their own fungus, too
