[@ariesthetruth8835]

I love to see a man that knows his foods and is very passionate about it!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Shaun-p6g]

Wow !!! I grew up attending Bryn Mawr Community Church and it's really nice to know that the chef at the super popular Batter And Berries restaurant in Lincoln Park is teaching this cooking class at the church. I enjoyed watching this CBS video because it brings back so memories !!! This also makes me want to dine at the famous restaurant because I've been hearing about the delicious brunch for quite so time !!!!😃😁

I see so many parents on social media today not pushing kids to eat fruits & veggies, that was not my childhood at all.

I love this man he is a true inspiration ❤❤❤❤

Momma said break the cycle 🙏🏾

[@arfriedman4577]

Glad he shows people how to cook good food easily. My mom was a stay at home mom till i was 15. She cmostly ooked us food, but we ate some processed things too. I was not much of a junk food and snack eater.

[@quantumleap1560]

Good for him!!! This is what we so need in all of our communities....education about the food we eat and the impact on our health. I love that he's teaching kids! ❤

[@pandersonnike]

This is a good story. I am guilty of having processed foods in my diet, but I have been making more food at home nowadays. Including frying my own food from scratch over frozen fried food at times, grilling my food, etc. And trying to use less salt as well. Little changes go a long way.

[@shawnlivers2757]

They do indeed, keep up the good work.

[@annspirahtion0834]

Awesome, no ultra processed. Thank you for sharing this piece. I’m so delighted to hear that change is happening. Bravo to the Chef and all families who participated. This is life changing and general curse breaking.❤❤❤

[@Lifl-24]

That’s awesome

[@seasea8841]

Wonderful! May God continue to bless you all.

[@ritzharrison2751]

This guy has the energy I love to see in this world, what a good guy.

[@michaelstopher1471]

I would like to see how healthy my home cooking rates. Minimal salt for almost 5 years. Heart problems scared it right outta me.

[@kurtzwar729]

Bravo. Real food by a great chef and educator. Getting kids in this is the way to go.

[@msgemsgems]

Amazing Person and Program.

[@Morningdovecamp]

Chef is doing a great job and service to humanity!! 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸

[@flowalsh5248]

my intestines, I am not kidding or allergic to that high free coast, corn syrup, crap. However, the problem is, it is in every single thing. The problem is a food that does not have that in. It is very costly, therefore I can’t afford the food on my disability check and it’s not benefits. I get every month. I get $1000 a month, in disability, I have to pay my rent, my bills, I am blind, so I can’t work because nobody will hire me, and I get a whopping at $95 a month in snap benefits. Something needs to be done about all of it.

[@latyshal.2286]

That's sad. Since you're on disability, you should be able to get at least $250 month in SNAP benefits, not $95. Research your city and the surrounding areas for programs that offer fresh fruits and vegetables for free. Also, check local churches.

[@aydreeanrose]

Salute to you !!!!!!!!!!!

[@Morningdovecamp]

This is the right track!! Shop the store perimeter!!! 👍👍🌞

Adam is built. 😤

[@eliporter3980]

I'm super thankful my mom taught me how to cook when I was young. For the last 6 months or so I rarely eat out and I've been cooking the majority of my meals from scratch. Next I'm about to get a juicer so I won't have to drink the poison on the store shelves. My food is better than what's at the restaurants plus I know whats' in my meal.

More chance of him being a victim of somebody that looks like him than bad food
