lol the japanese diet is already pretty damn healthy. i mean c'mon they have the world's lowest obesity rates, and have some of the oldest people in the world.
I go to college, everyone was buying pizza. I bought white egg omelet , wheat bread, and milk with a side of some protein powder--- they stared at me as if they never seen healthy food.
actually, hamburger steak is just that; hamburger meat with sauce, without the bun. I have those for dinner sometimes with veggies. don't need the bun really, not when I can add stuff like garlic, eggs or worcestershire sauce to the meat itself before grilling it. Oishii!
I grew up in Japan, and it still looks the same how they would serve lunches in their own classrooms. Around 10 a.m., you would start smelling something delicious and lunch ladies be cooking up big batches of whatever fresh on site.
Eash week kids take turns to serve. Younger students get help from 5th and 6th grader for that. I miss those days...My kids are going to school in the States and they don't like their food in cafeteria.
Though a more accurate translation of Japanese "hamburger" is more like Salisbury steak or meat loaf in American english, since it is made with ground beef.
On 1:34 the women implies that the boy's favorite food is hamburgers, but actually the boy was talking about steak.
The boy said "Han-ba-gu" which is steak, and the women thought he said "Han-ba-ga-" which is hamburger. I'm Japanese so I know what those children say.
@Ledzeppy333 the Japanese are far ahead. Their Knowledge is strictly linked up with what they also eat.
The funny thing is that Americans are developed too but Americans are too impatient and most Americans eat what is just not good for them, but many Americans today are changing. Many Americans today are into mediterranean and Japanes diet.
This is an awesome idea. I just wish America would do something like this. There's like, what, 75% obese/overweight people/kids now? Something alarmingly high like that. I would be more than happy to volunteer and help serve food like this, I just wish someone in power would agree also.
An interesting story, but I have to say that after having worked in Japanese elementary and middle schools for over 4 years now, there is no real problem with obesity. 90% of my kids are slim or skinny, with only a very few being chubby and only 3 or 4 in the whole school being what you might call obese.
The kids do so much sport and the school lunches and mostly fresh food help. Of course, I'm in rural Japan, which is diff than Tokyo.
Children is Treasure of Country and World.
