Jamie Oliver and The Dinner Ladies | School Dinners | Jamie Oliver

What on earth is that?

I think it's officially chickenfoot.

I honestly, honestly have no idea what is in that.

Look at us we're in a beautiful room surrounded by beautiful children.

Innocent, pure.

Their bodies and their bones are growing up.

Most important time in their life.

And, you know, we're being fed this.

It's not right.

It's not right these kids deserve better.

School dinners are in a deepening crisis

with a diet of fatty processed foods threatening our children's health.

The government doesn't seem to have the answers.

So Jamie Oliver wants to prove they can be better by transforming

what kids eat at school.

First you'd have to get the dinner ladies cooking Jamie style.

This isn't working out either.

Getting the kids to eat it ((I don't like it, it's nasty)).

And all on a tiny budget.

I've never, ever banged my head against the wall so many times.

Can Jamie Oliver change what Britain's kids eat at school?

I'm doing this because I want the kids to eat better food.

I want the kids to be healthy.

I want them to grow up with better habits.

I want us to have a fucking better, cooler, cleverer healthier nation.

Jamie will be starting his campaign

at Kidbrooke's school in Greenwich.

Although kids pay around a pound for their main course,

there's only 37p to spend on ingredients.

So head dinner lady Nora Sands mostly cooks cheap junk food.

Come on now you haven't got time to be talking, start serving.

Which is exactly what these kids want.

The kids

here eat more than a quarter of a ton of chips a week.

This is how much

veg goes in a school in a day.

Is that the only veg....

That is the only veg that we've got on.

They could have 'em but you couldn't even give them away.
