In this episode of Plan Simple Meals, Mia interviews Joe Cross. Joe is the creator of two amazing movies, Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead and The Kids Menu. On this episode you will learn about Joe's AHA at age 40 and how he changed his food to change his life. He talks about the problems that schools face today, role models, and including our kids in their food preparation. He sprinkles the episode with many very actionable steps from his movie like the size of your bowl and taking cereal out of its packaging. He says that the only thing he knows for sure is that we need to figure out how to add as much plant-based food into our diets as possible. This is a must listen, and my all time favorite quote is this: “We are not responsible for our children, we are responsible to our children.”
