TED Videos

Jamie Oliver:

I liked Jamie Oliver’s video. He made jokes along the way but stuck to the seriousness of the topic at the same time. His video involved pictures and videos and stories of real people who’s lives were being affected by bad eating habits. I like how he mentions he saves lives even though he may not be a doctor. His video was good and he seems like he is really into the cause and he’s never going to stop trying to get people to eat healthier.


Ann Cooper:

Ann Cooper’s video was filled with a lot of statistics. Personally I don’t like them because in order for me to really understand a statistic I have to think about it and in the time it takes to think I miss part of the video. She made very good points however and her video made sense. If people took the time to actually cook and make food for schools kids could eat healthier.


Mark Bittman:

Mark Bittman’s video seemed endless to me. He did make good points and showed pictures along the way but I was very uninterested as I watched. He focused more on things used to be compared to now and how he thinks they should be in the future. He was right on how things may say they are organic but how you really know for sure if they are using technicalities to call something organic.
