Thank the statists: Kids still don't know where their food comes from

In 2010, as part of his Food Revolution, Jamie Oliver stood in front of a classroom of six-year-olds to find out if children really did know what fresh food looked like.

Holding up some tomatoes, Oliver asked: "Do you know what these are?" He was met with stumped faces until one boy shouted: "Potatoes!"

Four years later, kids still don't know where their food comes from.

A recent national survey, commissioned by Woolworths, found that a third of Australian children struggled to identify fruit and vegetables, and were confused about where produce came from.

The study, which surveyed 1601 Australian children aged between six and 17 years, revealed 92 per cent did not know bananas grew on plants.

Researchers also found that "six in 10 [children] are unaware that herbs such as mint grow from the ground".
