Once met a guy who set up a whole rooftop garden in LA for a couple of schools so they could teach their students about growing food and as well about the importance of fresh ingredients. Part of the program was that kids would take turns (in groups) preparing (under the supervision of a chef) the lunch the school would eat that day, teachers included.
The results were awesome, and then the program got cut because it was too expensive. The dude is now a management consultant, ironically enough.
I feel for that dude. I worked in public service for a while and eventually burnt out because I felt like I wasn't making much progress. Even as a vegan today I often ask myself if it's worth it when Cletus is proudly eating 5x the beef anyone should just to "stick it to the soy boys".
