But now it's mud where our family and jamie came out here and buried our deep fryer. that's the story about the deep fryer. now we're eating salads and stir fries which are better for you. >> tonight we're going to make a little bit of stir fry. going to add all of our veggies in with our meat that's already cooked. what's good about dinner is it's fast, it's easy, it's quick, whatever. you know? tastes good. a serving size for someone is like two ounces of pasta. you're thinking you're not getting that much. you really are, you're getting enough anyway. >> i think jamie's awesome and he's don...

And as alice was saying, there's still a lot of resistance and the kids are calling it jamie's food. we're coming out with our own message. no longer jamie's food, it's our food, it's the county food. we're implementing it in to the other schools. we were the start of it, and now it's spread out through i think probably about 16, 17, 18 schools now, and i just hope they're seeing the success that we're having. but because i guess here recently, we had a drop in our lunch counts that we've also lost a halftime cook now. so instead of me having five cooks, we're down to 4 1/2. so that makes it a...

This out to the city and just help this food revolution begin. >> jamie, did the pastor have a big influence on all of this? >> absolutely. my job whatever i go, whatever i do is to get, you know, you can't make change, you can't learn what the problem is unless you dig yourself into a community. and the quickest way to do that is to go to pastor steve's community, his communion. he was doing inspiration at the time. i needed to find an ally. and, of course, what everyone forgets is apart from all of the other great work pastor steve does, he's the sharp edge of the knife because he has to bur...
