Help....
Does any one know of any reasons that...
Jamie Oliver is right to be worried about what children eat !!
It's for my english essay and I don't know what to write

for a start, loads of our modern food is processed and it is often 're-formed' from all kinds of questionable parts of animals.
Now that isn't completely wrong in itself, I guess from time immemorial Man has tried to use all parts of the animal - whatever happened to using offal? [does anyone eat Umble Pie now?]
What is probably more 'wrong' is the way the processing is carried out with added chemicals, and maybe even the animal feed is full of chemicals, and fruit and vegetables are not totally 'wholesome'.
Some of it is political, some of it is financial - we as the public have demanded CHEAP food for many years...
there's probably a lot more reasons --- from the other end of the argument, like the results of eating too much fatty food..obesity etc
