- This video outlines the structure and organization of the Finnish school lunch program. Its purpose is to inform a potential nationally-harmonized Canadian school food program. This is one of three videos from three different exemplary countries whose school food programs may be useful to inform work towards a program for Canada.

Wow 😮 it's incredible to see how fresh everything is. Amazing 😍
The exact same meals served to military members. Soldiers know what their bodies need better than a health ministry so they eat healthy to perform better on physical exams. What gets these kids to eat their vegetables?
I think it's combination of the upbringing and "free food" thing. Meals are like that soon as you enter daycare or preschool, so you kinda get used to eating vegetables. I mean the teachers/caretakers do force you to taste everything if you can in preschool or grades 1-2. At least that is my exprerience. We even had fruit and vegetable tasting days, they brought 10+ different vegetables and we needed to taste them as raw and try to figure out which vegetable was it.
Also it's free food, who wouldn't want a free meal a day? I think some parents even push their kid to eat at school since it saves money from the grocery bill at home. But this video is kinda misleading, there is always groups of ppl who don't eat salads or side veggies. It's not forced on teenagers, so they can choose whatever they want.
I never ate in school like after age 12. They didn't offer food suitable for my diet in schools back then so i just had to go with empty stomach. On college they did have. And like they said in the video it's still optional to have vegan or vegetarian options, not mandatory.
@@user-11188 indeed. I ate no added sugar as a baby. Very healthy stuff. Still love fruit and veg more than candy.
The school lunches better than most of the other countries
@@user-11188 So is that the reason why so many people in the USA are obese
Japan and Korea have been doing the same exact thing for years.
In Finland this system has been since 1948
Finland did it first lol
Blah blah blah, show the world how long you wash grapes or any fruit like SOUTH KOREA before serving to students. Show what food product you are serving for breakfast or lunch and what ingredients go into it like SOUTH KOREA.
They don't serve grapes in Finland. The average schoolday is six hours long, so breakfast isn't served. I'm still at a finnsih school. Today we had soup with chickpeas, carrots, potatoes, onion and it was tasty. I think rather than saying: "This place has better system" you should be supportive. It is greate, that South Korea has good school lunch, but I stand for Finnish school lunch, which is healthy.
