The well-known British supermarket chain “Tesco” has come out with yet another brilliant idea. It’s called the “Farm to fork initiative” and it is the first step they are taking to get youngsters interested in the manufacturing of food. They want the next generation of pupils to have a healthier relationship with food by broadening their culinary horizons, and making food much more interesting and engaging.
The goal of the project is to help uncover the mysteries behind some everyday products, and give pupils access to places they would not usually be able to visit, and help them understand how their food ends up on their plates.
The supermarket chain is bringing food producers from around the world from Costa Rican banana growers to Italian pasta makers to interact with the pupils through social media services like, Google Hangouts. This is going to give the pupils plenty time and opportunity to ask questions and get tips about the products, and how they get from the farms to their plates.
I personally think it is very, very important that we teach our youngsters about healthy food, especially in this day and age of fast food.
I too have a poor relationship with food.
