I think everyone was really aware that increasingly children are getting obese, children are getting Type II Diabetes, and we have to do something about that, because that’s a bit of a failing on our part, our generation – we kind of let those kids down a bit."ĭespite already working on new ideas for his next documentary, Gameau feels that the health and food world will always be part of life: "I’ve learnt so much about nutrition in the last few years, it’s very hard to walk away from it, so I’ll certainly pursue a couple of ideas that have already come to me, or have been offered in terms of that space, but at the same time I work on another project that absolutely nothing to do with food." He also managed to enlist the help of famous faces like Hugh Jackman, Stephen Fry to star in humourous sketches peppered along the movie, a task which turned out surprinsingly easy: "I think they really responded to what we were trying to do, they could see the intention of the film was to get through families and kids.
