Taste the Rainbow.
I totally agree with Jill's "Taste the Rainbow." I was surprised at American food when I came here this year from Japan. I thought teenagers were not interested in eating. Pizza or hamburgers for lunch? How do they absorb vitamins? I am still wondering.
The other thing I was surprised at is everything is frozen! Frozen pizza, frozen vegetables, frozen apple pie!
In Japan,my mom cooks three times a day - breakfast, lunch and dinner, and we spend an hour as a family at the table. I know AMericans has its own culture, but I pity them. Dinner is a good time to have fun with your family. Thank you Jill, for pointing out how important mealtime is.
