Teach every child about food | Jamie Oliver

Translator: Ereblir Kadriu Reviewer: Dita Bytyci

Për fat të keq,

Sadly,

ne 18 minutat e ardhshme përderisa unë do të flas,

in the next 18 minutes when I do our chat,

kater ameikanë te cilet jane gjalle

four Americans that are alive

do te vdesin

will be dead through the food that they eat.

nga ushqimi qe ata hane.

Une quhem Jamie Oliver. Une jam 34 vjecar.

My name's Jamie Oliver.

I'm 34 years old.

Jam nga Essex ne Angli

I'm from Essex in England

dhe per shtate vitet e fundit

and for the last seven years

une kam punuar ne menyre te drejte pa u lodhur

I've worked fairly tirelessly to save lives in my own way.

per te shpetuar jetera ne menyren time.

Une nuk jam doktor

I'm not a doctor;

Une jam shef kuzhine,

I'm a chef,

I don't have expensive equipment

Une nuk kam pajisje te shtrenjta

or medicine.

ose ilaqe.

I use information, education.

Une perdor informacionin, edukimin.

I profoundly believe that the power of food

Une thellesisht besoj se fuqia e ushqimit

has a primal place in our homes

ka vend paresor ne shtepite tona

that binds us to the best bits of life.

qe na lidh neve me pjese me te mira te jetes.

Ne kemi nje realitet

We have an awful, awful reality right now.

shumë te tmershem tani per per tani.

America, you're at the top of your game.

Amerike, ti je ne majë te lojes.

Ky eshte njeri prej vendet me te pa shendetshem ne bote.

This is one of the most unhealthy countries in the world.

Can I please just see a raise of hands

A mund te shoh duart lart

sa prej juve keni femijet tuaj ne kete salle sot?

for how many of you have children in this room today?

Ju lutem ngreni duart lart.

Put your hands up.

You can continue to put your hands up, aunties and uncles as well.

Tezet (hallat), dajallaret (axhallaret), ju mund te vazhdoni...

Ngreni duart lart. Tezet (hallat) , dajallaret (Axhallaret) gjithashtu.

Most of you. OK.

Shumica prej juve. Ne rregull.

We, the adults of the last four generations,

Ne, te rriturit e kater gjeneratave te fundit,

have blessed our children with the destiny

i kemi bekuar femijte tane me fatin e

of a shorter lifespan than their own parents.

nje jete-gjatesie me te shkurter

sesa prinderit e tyre.

Femiju juaj do te jetojë jeten dhjete vite me pak

Your child will live a life ten years younger than you

se ju

per shak te peisazhit te ushqimit qe ne ndertojme rreth tyre.

because of the landscape of food that we've built around them.

Dy e treta e kesaj dhome,

Two-thirds of this room,

sot, ne Amerike, statistikisht jane mbi peshe ose te trashe.

today, in America, are statistically overweight or obese.

Here do kur do t'ju kapim edhe juve.

You lot, you're all right,

but we'll get you eventually, don't worry.

(Buzeshje)

(Laughter)

Ne rregull?

Statistikat per shendet te keq jane te qarta,

The statistics of bad health are clear,

shume te qarta.

very clear.

Ne i kalojme jeterat tona duke qene paranoik per vdekjen, vrasjen,

We spend our lives being paranoid about death, murder, homicide,

si doni thoni. Eshte ne faqen e pare te cdo gazete, CNN.

you name it; it's on the front page of every paper, CNN.

Shiko vrasjen ne fund, per Zotin.

Look at homicide at the bottom, for God's sake.

Ne regull?

Right?

(Buzeqeshje)

(Laughter)

(Duartrokitje)

(Applause)

Secili prej ketyre me te kuqe

Every single one of those in the red is a diet-related disease.

ka semundje qe ka lidhje me ushqimin e tij.

Cdo doktor, cdo specialist do t'ju tregoj ate.

Any doctor, any specialist will tell you that.

Fakt. Semundja qe kane lidhje me ushqimin eshte vrasesi me i madh

Fact: diet-related disease is the biggest killer

ne Shtetet e Bashkuara, tani per tani.

in the United States, right now, here today.

Ky eshte nje problem global

This is a global problem.

Eshte nje katastrofe.

It's a catastrophe.

It's sweeping the world.

Eshte duke e gjithperfshire boten.

England is right behind you, as usual.

Anglia eshte meniher prapa juve, si zakonisht.

(Buzeqeshje)

(Laughter)

E kam ditur qe ata ishin afer, por jo edhe aq afer.

I know they were close, but not that close.

Na duhet nje revulocion.

We need a revolution.

Mexico, Australia, Germany,

Meksika, Australia, Gjermania, India, Kina,

India, China,

te gjitha kan probleme masive te mbi peshes dhe shendetit te keq.

all have massive problems of obesity and bad health.

Mendoni per duhanin.

Think about smoking.

Kushton shume me pak sese mbi pesha tani.

It costs way less than obesity now.

Mbi pesha ju kushton amerikanet

Obesity costs you Americans 10 percent of your health-care bills,

10 perqind e faturave tuaja te kujdesit shendetsor.

150 billion dollars a year.

150 bilion dollar ne vit.

Ne 10 vite, eshte zhvendosur ne dyfish.

In 10 years, it's set to double:

300 bilion dollar ne vit.

300 billion dollars a year.

Let's be honest, guys, you haven't got that cash.

Dhe te behemi te sinqerte, ju nuk keni ato para.

(Laughter)

(Buzqeshje)

Une kam ardhur ketu per te filluar nje revolucion te ushqimit

I came here to start a food revolution that I so profoundly believe in.

ne te cilin une aq shume besoj.

Na duhet ajo. Koha eshte tani.

We need it. The time is now.

We're in a tipping-point moment.

Ne jemi ne nje moment kthese.

I've been doing this for seven years.

Kam qene duke e bere kete per shtate vite.

I've been trying in America for seven years.

Kam qene duke u munduar ne Amerike per shtate vite.

Now is the time when it's ripe -- ripe for the picking.

Tani eshte koha kur eshte e pjekur--- e pjekur per t'u mbledhur.

Une shkova tek syri i stuhise.

I went to the eye of the storm.

Uns isha ne West Virginia, shteti me i pa shendetshem ne Amerike.

I went to West Virginia, the most unhealthy state in America.

Ose ishte vitin e shkuar.

Or it was last year.

We've got a new one this year, but we'll work on that next season.

Ne kemi nje te re kete vit, por ne do te punojme rreth saj sezonin e ardhshem.

(Laughter)

( Buzeqeshje)

Huntington, West Virginia.

Huntington, West Virginia. Beautiful town.

Vend i bukur.

I wanted to put heart and soul and people,

Doja te vëja zemren dhe shpirtin dhe njerezit,

your public,

publikun tuaj

around the statistics that we've become so used to.

rreth statistikave qe ne jemi bere

aq te perdorshem.

I want to introduce you to some of the people that I care about:

Une dua te ju prezantoj disa njerez qe une shqetssohen per ta.

your public, your children.

Publikun tuaj. Femijet tuaj.

Deshiroj t'ua tregoj nje foto te shoqes time Brtitany.

I want to show a picture of my friend Brittany.

She's 16 years old.

Ajo eshte 16 vjec.

Aja ka edhe gjashte vite jete

She's got six years to live

pershkak te ushqimit qe ajo ka ngrene.

because of the food that she's eaten.

Ajo eshte gjenerata e trete e amerikaneve

She's the third generation of Americans

that hasn't grown up within a food environment

qe nuk eshte rritur ne nje ambient ushqimi

where they've been taught to cook at home or in school,

ku ato jane mesuar e gatuajne ne shtepi ose ne shkolle,

ose nena e saj, ose gjyshja e saj.

or her mom, or her mom's mom.

She has six years to live.

Ajo ka gjashte vite jete.

She's eating her liver to death.

Ajo eshte duke e ngrene melqeine e saj ne vdekje

Stacy, familja Edwards.

Stacy, the Edwards family.

This is a normal family, guys.

Kjo eshte nje familje normale, njerez.

Stacy bene me te miren, por ajo eshte gjenerata e trete gjithashtu;

Stacy does her best, but she's third-generation as well;

ajo kurre nuk eshte mesuar te gatuaj ne shtepi apo ne shkolle.

she was never taught to cook at home or at school.

Trashalluku i familjes.

The family's obese.

Justin here, 12 years old, he's 350 pounds.

Justin, 12 vjec.

Ai eshte 350 pounds.

Ai merr ngacmime, per hir te Zotit.

He gets bullied, for God's sake.

vajza atje, Katie, ajo eshte kater vjec

The daughter there, Katie, she's four years old.

Ajo eshte e trashe para se te filloj shkollen fillore.

She's obese before she even gets to primary school.

Marrissa. Ajo eshte ne rregull. Ajo eshte nje nga te shumte.

Marissa, she's all right, she's one of your lot.

Por a dini cka? Babai i daj, i cili ishte i trashe,

But you know what?

Her father, who was obese, died in her arms,

vdiq ne duart e saj.

And then the second most important man in her life,

Dhe pastaj personi i dyte me i rendesishem ne jeten e saj

axha( daja ) i saj, vdiq nga mbi pesha.

her uncle, died of obesity,

and now her step-dad is obese.

Dhe tani njerku i saj eshte i trashe

You see, the thing is,

E shini, problemi eshte

obesity and diet-related disease

obeziteti dhe semundja e dietes

nuk i lendon vetem njerezit qe e kane ate;

doesn't just hurt the people that have it;

por edhe shoqerine e tyre, familjaret

it's all of their friends, families, brothers, sisters.

vellezerit, motrat.

Pastori Steve.

Pastor Steve:

Nje njeri frymzues. Njeri nga aleatet e mij te hershem ne Huntington, West Virgina.

an inspirational man,

one of my early allies in Huntington, West Virginia.

Ai eshte ne kry te ketij problemi.

He's at the sharp knife-edge of this problem.

Ai ka per te varrosur njerezit, ne rregull?

He has to bury the people, OK?

Dhe ai eshte lodhur nga kjo gje. Ai eshte lodhur me varrosjen e shokeve te tij,

And he's fed up with it.

He's fed up with burying his friends, his family, his community.

dhe te familjes se tij, komunitetit te tij.

Eja dimer, tre here me shume njerez vdesin.

Come winter, three times as many people die.

He's sick of it.

Ai eshte lodhur nga kjo gje.

Kjo eshte semundje e parandalushme. Humbje e kohes.

This is preventable disease. Waste of life.

Me qe ra fjala, kjo eshte arsyeja pse ata varrosen.

By the way, this is what they get buried in.

Ne nuk kemi qene te mbledhur per ta bere kete.

We're not geared up to do this.

Nuk munda t'i largoj nga dera, dhe jam serioz.

Can't even get them out the door, and I'm being serious.

Can't even get them there. Forklift.

Nuk mund as ti dergojme ata tje.

Ne rregull, e shoh qe eshte nje trekendesh, OK?

OK, I see it as a triangle, OK?

This is our landscape of food.

Ky eshte peisazhi yne per ushqimin.

I need you to understand it.

Me duhet qe ju ta kuptoni ate.

You've probably heard all this before.

Ju me gjase keni degjuar te gjitha keto me pare,

por le te kthehemi prapa perseri.

Over the last 30 years,

Gjate 30 viteve te fundit,

what's happened that's ripped the heart out of this country?

cka ka ndodhur qe ka grisur zemren e ketij vendi?

Le te jemi te sinqerte dhe te ndershem.

Let's be frank and honest.

Mire. Jeta e modernizuar.

Well, modern-day life.

Let's start with the Main Street.

Le te fillojme me Main Street.

Ushqimi i shpejte e ka kapluar te githen vendin. Ne dime kete.

Fast food has taken over the whole country; we know that.

Brendet e medha jane disa prej kompetencave me te rendesishme,

The big brands are some of the most important powers,

powerful powers, in this country.

kompetenca te jashtezankonhsme ne kete vend.

Supermarketet gjithashtu.

(Sighs)

Supermarkets as well.

Kompanite te medha. Kopmpanite te medha.

Big companies. Big companies.

30 vjet me para, shumica e ushqimit

Thirty years ago, most of the food

ishte kryesisht vendor dhe kryesisht i fresket.

was largely local and largely fresh.

Tani kryesisht eshte e procesuar dhe e mbushur me lloje te ndryshme te shtesave,

Now it's largely processed and full of all sorts of additives,

perbers te posacem, dhe ju e dini pjesen e mbetur te stories.

extra ingredients, and you know the rest of the story.

Permasa e porcionit sic duket eshte masive, problem masiv.

Portion size is obviously a massive, massive problem.

Etiketimi eshte nje problem masiv.

Labeling is a massive problem.

Etiketimi ne kete vend eshte nje turperim.

The labeling in this country is a disgrace.

Ata deshirojne te jene vete..Ata deshirojne te mbajne nen kontrolln vet-veten.

The industry wants to self-police themselves.

Industria deshiron te mbajne nen kontroll vet-veten.

Cka , me kete llojh kilme? Ata nuk e meritojne kete.

What, in this kind of climate? They don't deserve it.

How can you say something is low-fat when it's full of so much sugar?

Si mund te thoni qe dicka eshte me pak yndyre kur eshte i mbushur me aq shume sheqer?

Shtepi.

Home.

Problemi me i madh me shtepine

The biggest problem with the home

eshte se ka qene zemra

is that used to be the heart of passing on food culture,

e kalimit te ushqimit dhe kulture te ushqimit,

cka e ka bere shoqerine tone.

what made our society.

That is not happening anymore.

Kjo nuk eshte duke ndodhur me.

Dhe ju e dini, perderisa shkojme ne pune dhe perserisa jeta ndryshon,

And you know, as we go to work and as life changes,

dhe perderisa jeta gjithmone zhvillohet,

and as life always evolves,

ne disi si duhet ta shikojme ate holistikisht--

we kind of have to look at it holistically --

te terhiqemi per momentin, dhe te ri-adresojme balancin.

step back for a moment, and re-address the balance.

Kjo ska per te ndodhur. Nuka ka ndodhur per 30 vite.

It hasn't happened for 30 years, OK?

Une deshiroje t'ua paraqes nje situate.

I want to show you a situation

qe eshte shume normale

that is very normal right now; the Edwards family.

tani. Familja Edwards

(Video) Jamie Oliver: Let's have a talk.

( video) Jamie Olver: Le te bisedojme.

Kjo gjë shkon permes juve dhe trpit te familjes tuaj

This stuff goes through you and your family's body every week.

cdo dite.

And I need you to know

Dje e ndjejn te nevojshme t'ju tregoj qe kjo gje do te'ju vras femijet tuaj me heret.

that this is going to kill your children early.

How are you feeling?

Si po ndiheni?

Stacy: Just feeling really sad and depressed right now.

Stacy: Po ndihem shume e merzitur dhe deshpruar ne kete moment.

Por , ju e dini, Unde dua qe femijet te mi te ia dalin mbane ne jete

But, you know, I want my kids to succeed in life

dhe kjo nuk do t;'i dergoj ata atje.

and this isn't going to get them there.

Por une jam duke mbytur ata.

But I'm killing them.

JO: Po ju jeni. Ju jeni.

JO: Yes you are. You are.

Por ne mund ta parandalojme ate.

But we can stop that.

Normal. Le te shkojme ne shkolla,

Normal.

Let's get on schools,

per te cilat jam edhe nje specialist i mire

something that I'm fairly much a specialist in.

Ne rregull. Shkolla

OK, school.

Cka eshte shkolla? Kush e zbuloi shkollen? Cfare qellimi ka shkolla?

What is school? Who invented it? What's the purpose of school?

Shkolla eshte zbuluar me qellim qe te na pajis me vegla

School was always invented to arm us with the tools

te na ben me kreativ, qe te bejme gjera te mrrekullueshme

to make us creative, do wonderful things,

make us earn a living, etc., etc.

qe te fitojme, etj. etj

You know, it's been kind of in this sort of tight box for a long, long time, OK?

Ju e dini, ishte disi ne kete lloj te kutise se ngushte per nje kohe te gjate, kohe te gjate.

Ne rregull?

Por ne nuk e kemi evoluar ate

But we haven't really evolved it

per t'u marr me katastofat e shendetit te Amerikes, Ne rregull?

to deal with the health catastrophes of America, OK?

Ushqimi i shkolles eshte dicka

School food is something

qe shumica e femijeve-- 31 milion ne dite, faktikisht--

that most kids -- 31 million a day, actually --

kane dy here ne dite, me shume se shpesh

have twice a day, more than often, breakfast and lunch,

mengjesin ose dreken , 180 dite te virtit.

180 days of the year.

Pra mund te themi se ushqimi i shkolles eshte plotesisht i rendesishem , me te vertet,

So you could say that school food is quite important, really,

duke gjykuar rrethanat.

judging the circumstances.

(Laughter)

( Buzeqeshje)

Before I crack into my rant,

Parsete plas ne perqarjet e mia,

te cilat jam i sigurt qe jeni duke i pritur...

which I'm sure you're waiting for --

(Laughter)

( Buzeqeshje)

Me duhet te them nje gje, dhe eshte shume me rendesi

I need to say one thing, and it's so important

in, hopefully, the magic that happens and unfolds

ne shpresdhenien qe magjia te ndodh dhe shpaloset

in the next three months.

ne 3 muajt e ardhshem.

Dreka e zonjave, gatimet e drenkes se Amerikes...

The lunch ladies, the lunch cooks of America --

Une e ofroj veten time si amasador i tyre.

I offer myself as their ambassador.

I'm not slagging them off.

Une nuk po i liroj ata.

They're doing the best they can do.

Ato jane duke e bere me te miren qe ato munden.

Atao po bejne me te miren.

They're doing their best.

Por ato jane duke bere cka u eshte thene,

But they're doing what they're told,

dhe cka u eshte thene eshte gabim.

and what they're being told to do is wrong.

The system is highly run by accountants;

Sistemi eshte me teper zhvillohet nga kontabilistet

there's not enough, or any, food-knowledgeable people in the business.

Nuka ka te mjaftueshem, ose ndonje,

njeri ne biznes qe ka njohuri rreth ushqimit.

There's a problem:

Eshte nje problem.

If you're not a food expert, and you've got tight budgets

Nese nuk jeni nje ekspert i ushqimit, dhe e keni buxhetin e vogel,

dhe po zvoglohet, atehere ju nuk mund te jeni kreativ,

and it's getting tighter, then you can't be creative,

nuk mund u ul e zhyt dhe te shkruash gjera te ndryshme rreth gjerave te ndryshme.

you can't duck and dive and write different things around things.

Nese jeni nje kontabilist, dhe nje boksier,

If you're an accountant, and a box-ticker,

gjeja e vetme qe mund te beni ne keto rrethana

the only thing you can do in these circumstances

eshte qe te bleni ndyresire me te lire.

is buy cheaper shit.

Now, the reality is,

Tani, realitetin eshte,

the food that your kids get every day is fast food,

ushqimi qe femijet tuaj hane cdo dite eshte ushqim i shpejte,

eshte shume i perpunuar,

it's highly processed,

there's not enough fresh food in there at all.

nuk ka mjafte ushqim te freske ne ate.

You e dini, sasia e aditiveve, numra E, perbersit nuk do ta besonit...

You know, the amount of additives, E numbers,

ingredients you wouldn't believe --

there's not enough veggies at all.

Nuk ka vegjetarian te mjaftushem. Patatet e skuqura konsiderohen perime.

French fries are considered a vegetable.

Pice per mengjes. Ata as nuk marrin crockery.

Pizza for breakfast. They don't even get crockery.

Thika dhe pirunj? Jo, ato ajane shume te rrezikshme.

Knives and forks? No, they're too dangerous.

Ata kane gershere ne klase

They have scissors in the classroom,

por thika dhe priunj, jo.

but knives and forks? No.

And the way I look at it is:

Dhe menyren se si e shoh une ate, nese ju nuk keni thika dhe pirnunj ne shkollen tuaj,

If you don't have knives and forks in your school,

ju jeni kryesisht te miratuar,

you're purely endorsing,

from a state level, fast food, because it's handheld.

nga niveli shtetro, ushqimit shteteror.

Dhe po. meqe ra fjal, eshte ushqimi i shpejte.

And yes, by the way, it is fast food:

It's sloppy Joes, it's burgers,

jane hamburgere,

it's wieners, it's pizzas, it's all of that stuff.

jane picat, jane te gjitha keto gjera.

(Sighs)

Ten percent of what we spend on health care, as I said earlier,

10 perqind te asaj qe kemi shpenzuar per kujdesin shendetsor, sic e thash me heret,

is on obesity, and it's going to double.

eshte ne trashje. Dhe eshte duke shkaur ne dyfish.

Ne nuk jemi duke i mesuar femijet tane.

We're not teaching our kids.

There's no statutory right to teach kids about food,

Nuk eshte asnje drejt ligjore per ti mesuar femijet rreth ushqimit,

shkolle e fillore ose e mesme. Ne rregull?

elementary or secondary school, OK?

Ne nuk i mesojme femijet per ushqimin. A po?

We don't teach kids about food, right?

Dhe ky eshte nje klip i shkurtter nga nje shkolle fillore,

And this is a little clip from an elementary school,

e cila eshte shume e zakonshme ne Angli.

which is very common in England.

Video: Kush e e din cka eshte kjo?

(Video) Who knows what this is?

Child: Potatoes.

Femiju: Patatet. Jamie Olver: Patate? Pra, ju mendoni qe keto jane patate?

Jamie Oliver: Potato? So, you think these are potatoes?

A e dini cka eshte ajo?

Do you know what that is?

Do you know what that is?

A e dini cka eshte ajo? Femiju: Brokolo?

Child: Broccoli?

JO; Po kjo? Shoku i vjeter i yni.

JO: What about this? Our good old friend.

A e dini cka eshte kjo zemer? Femiju: Selino.

Child: Celery.

JO: No. What do you think this is?

JO: Cka mendon qe eshte kjo? Femiju: Qepë. JO: Qepë? Jo.

Child: Onion. JO: Onion? No.

Jamie Oliver: Menjehere ju merrni nje kuptim vertete te qarte

JO: Immediately you get a really clear sense

of "Do the kids know anything about where food comes from?"

se a dine femijet ndonje gje nga vjen ushqimi.

Video: JO; Kush e di cka eshte kjo? Femiju: Uh, dardhe.

Who knows what that is? Child: Uh, pear?

JO: Cka mendon se eshte kjo? Femija: Nuk e di.

JO: What do you think this is? Child: I don't know.

JO: Nese femijet nuk e dine cka eshte

JO: If the kids don't know what stuff is,

atehere ata kurre nuk do ta hane ate.

then they will never eat it.

( Buzeqeshje)

(Laughter)

JO; Normale. Anglia dhe Amerika,

JO: Normal. England and America,

Anglia dhe Amerika.

England and America.

Guess what fixed that.

Gjeje cka e rrgulloj ate. Gjeje cka e rregulloj ate.

Dy sesione nje-oreshe.

Two one-hour sessions.

Ne duhet te fillojme t'i mesojme femijet tane

We've got to start teaching our kids about food in schools, period.

per ushqimin ne shkolla, pike.

(Applause)

(Duartrokitje)

Dua t'ju tregoj dicka,

I want to tell you about something

Dua t'ju tregoj dicka qe disi si

that kind of epitomizes the trouble that we're in, guys, OK?

e shkurton problemin qe e kemi. Ne rregull?

Deshiroj te flas per dicka shume bazike sikur qumeshti.

I want to talk about something so basic as milk.

Every kid has the right to milk at school.

Cdo femije e ka te drejten te merr qumesht ne shkolle.

Your kids will be having milk at school, breakfast and lunch, right?

Femijet tuaj do te marrin qumesht ne shkolle, mengjes dhe dreke. A po jo?

Ata do t'i marrin dy shishe. Ne rregull?

They'll be having two bottles, OK?

Dhe shumica e femijeve bejne.

And most kids do.

But milk ain't good enough anymore.

Por qumeshti nuk eshte aq i mire më.

Don't get me wrong, I support milk --

Sespse dikush tek fusha e qumshtit, --- dhe mos me merri per te keq,

Une e perkrah qumshtin, por dikush ne fushen e qumshtit

but someone at the milk board

ndoshta ka paguar shume para per ndonje plakush

probably paid a lot of money for some geezer to work out

per te punuar ne qoftese ju shtoni ereza dhe ngjyra

that if you put loads of flavorings,

dhe sheqer ne qumsht, ne rregull,

colorings and sugar in milk,

me shume femije do ta pine ate. Po.

more kids will drink it.

Yeah.

( Duartrokitje)

Dhe natyrrisht kjo do te arrihet.

Obviously now that's going to catch on

Fusha e molles do te punoj

the apple board is going to work out

qe nese ata bejne sheqerka me molle ata do te hane me shume molla gjithashtu.

that if they make toffee apples they'll eat more as well.

A po me kuptoni?

Do you know what I mean?

Sa me perket mua, nuk ka nevoje te aromatizojme qumshtin.

For me, there isn't any need to flavor the milk.

Ne rregull? Ka sheqer ne gjithcka.

Okay? There's sugar in everything.

I di te mirat dhe te kqijat te ketyre perbersve.

I know the ins and outs of those ingredients.

Esshte ne gjithcka. Edhe qumshti nuk ka shpetuar

It's in everything.

Even the milk hasn't escaped the kind of modern-day problems.

nga problemet e dites moderne.

Ketu eshte qumshti jone. Ketu eshte paketa jone.

There's our milk. There's our carton.

Ne ate perafersihst ka po aq shume sheqer

In that is nearly as much sugar as one of your favorite cans of fizzy pop,

sa njera prej kanaceve tuaj te preferuara te fizzy pop.

Dhe ata po i marrin dy ne dite.

and they are having two a day.

So, let me just show you.

Pra, me lerni vetem te ju tregoj.

We've got one kid, here --

Ne kemi nje femije ketu,

duke marre, ju e dini , tete luge gjelle me sheqer ne nje dite.

having, you know, eight tablespoons of sugar a day.

You know, there's your week.

Ju e dini, eshte java juaj.

There's your month.

Eshte muaji i juaj.

And I've taken the liberty of putting in

Dhe une e kam marr guximin te vendos

just the five years of elementary school sugar,

sheqer vetem per pese vitet e shkolles fillore,

vetem per qumesht.

just from milk.

Atehere, nuk e di per ju,

Now, I don't know about you guys,

por duke i gjykuar rrethnat, a po jo,

but judging the circumstances, right,

any judge in the whole world,

secili gjykates ne te gjithe boten

do t'i shikonte statistikat dhe deshmite,

would look at the statistics and the evidence,

and they would find any government of old guilty of child abuse.

dhe ata do te gjenin ndonje qeverisje te vjeter

te fajsise te abuzimit te femijes. Ky eshte besimi im.

That's my belief.

(Duartrokitje)

(Applause)

(Applause ends)

Atehere, nese do vija deri ketu, dhe do deshiroja te mund te vija sot

Now, if I came up here, and I wish I could come up here today

dhe te sillja sherues per AIDS dhe kancer,

and hang a cure for AIDS or cancer,

ju do te perlesheni dhe perpiqeni te vini te une.

you'd be fighting and scrambling to get to me.

This, all this bad news, is preventable.

Kjo, gjithe keto lajme te keqija, jane te parandalueshme

Ky eshte nje lajm i mire.

That's the good news.

It's very, very preventable.

Eshte shume shume i parandalushem.

Pra, le te mendojme se kemi nje problem ketu,

So, let's just think about, we got a problem here,

ne duhet te rifillojme.

we need to reboot.

Ne rregull pra, ne boten time cka duhet te bejme?

Okay so, in my world, what do we need to do?

Ketu eshte problemi, e drejte.

Here is the thing, right,

it cannot just come from one source.

Ajo nuk mund te vije vetem nga nje burim.

Te rifillojme dhe te bejme nje ndryshim vertete te qarte,

To reboot and make real tangible change,

ndryshim te vertete, qe te mund t;ju shikoj ne driten e syve

real change, so that I could look you in the white of the eyes

dhe te ju them, " Ne 10 vite,

and say, "In 10 years' time,

historia e jetes se femijeve tuaj,

the history of your children's lives,

lumturia-- dhe le te mos harrojme, ju jeni te menqur nese hani mire,

happiness -- and let's not forget, you're clever if you eat well,

ju e dini qe do te jetoni me gjate,

you know you're going to live longer --

dhe te gjitha keto gjera, do te duken ndrysh. Ne rregull?"

all of that stuff, it will look different. OK?"

Pra, supermarketet.

So, supermarkets.

Ku tjeter beni pazar?

Where else do you shop so religiously?

Nje jave po, nje jo.

Week in, week out.

How much money do you spend, in your life, in a supermarket?

Ne jeten tuaj, sa para shpenzoni ne nje supermarket?

Love them.

I adhuroj ata. Ata na shesin neve cka ne deshirojme. Ne rregul.

They just sell us what we want. All right.

They owe us to put a food ambassador in every major supermarket.

Ata na kane borxh neve, er te vene nje ushqim

ne secilin supermarekt.

They need to help us shop.

Ata kane nevoje per te na ndihmuar ne dyqan. Ata kane nevoje te na tregojne si te gatuajme,

They need to show us how to cook quick, tasty, seasonal meals

shpejte, shishem, ushqime sezonale

per njerez qe jane te zene.

for people that are busy.

Kjo nuk eshte e shtrejte.

This is not expensive.

Esshte e bere ne disa. Dhe ka nevoje te behet pertej kufirit

It is done in some, and it needs to be done across the board

ne Amerike se shpejti, dhe shpejte.

in America soon, and quick.

Brendet e medha, e dini, brendet e ushqimit,

The big brands, you know, the food brands,

duhet te vene edukimin e ushqimit

need to put food education at the heart of their businesses.

ne thelb te bizneseve te tyre.

I know, easier said than done.

E dini, me lehte te thuhet se te behe.

It's the future. It's the only way.

Eshte e ardhmja. Eshte e vetmja rruge.

Fast food.

Ushqimi i shpejte. Me industrine e ushqimit te shpejte

With the fast-food industry

ju e dini, eshte shume konkurruese.

you know, it's very competitive.

Une kam pasur shume dokumenta sekrete dhe marreveshje

I've had loads of secret papers and dealings

me restorante te ushqimit te shpejte.

with fast food restaurants.

Une e di si e bejne ata.

I know how they do it.

I mean, basically they've weaned us on

Une mendoj ne parim ata na kane larguar nga

keto hite te sheqerit, kripes, dhe yndyres, dhe x, y, dhe z.

to these hits of sugar, salt and fat, and x, y, and z,

Dhe te gjithe i duan ata. Ne rregull?

and everyone loves them, right?

Pra, keta njerez do te jenë pjese e zgjidhjes.

So, these guys are going to be part of the solution.

Por ne duhet te fusim ne pune qeverine

But we need to get the government to work

me te gjithe shitesit te ushqimit te shpejte dhe te industirse se restoranteve.

with all of the fast food purveyors and the restaurant industry,

Dhe ne nje periudhe me shume se pese, gjashte, shtate vite

and over a five, six, seven year period

larguan neve nga shumat ekstreme

wean of us off the extreme amounts

of fat, sugar and all the other non-food ingredients.

te yndyres, sheqerit, ymdyra dhe te gjithe perbersite tjere te jo-ushqimit.

Tash, kthehemi tek lloj i brendeve te medha, etiketimi,

Now, also, back to the sort of big brands:

labeling, I said earlier, is an absolute farce

Sic e thash me heret, ne farse apsolute,

and has got to be sorted.

dhe duhet te klasifikohet.

Ne rregull, shkolla.

OK, school.

Obviously, in schools, we owe it to them

Natyrisht ne shkolla i kemi borxh atyre

per t'u siguruar atp 180 ditet e vitit,

to make sure those 180 days of the year,

nga mosha kater e cmuar,

from that little precious age of four,

deri 18, 20, 24, sidocofte,

until 18, 20, 24, whatever,

atyre duhet t'ju gatuhet

they need to be cooked proper, fresh food

ushqim te fresket

nga kulitivues lokal ne vend. Ne rregull?

from local growers on site, OK?

Eshte nevoja te jete nje standard i ri i ushqimit te fresket

There needs to be a new standard of fresh, proper food

per femijet tuaj. Po ?

for your children, yeah?

( Duartroktije)

(Applause)

Under the circumstances, it's profoundly important

Nen keto rrethana, eshte thellesisht e rendesishme

qe secili femije Amerikan te le shkolle

that every single American child leaves school

knowing how to cook 10 recipes

duke ditur si te pergadis 10 recepte

that will save their life.

qe do te shpetojne jeten e tyre.

Aftesi te jetes.

Life skills.

(Applause)

( Duartrokitje)

Kjo nenkupton se ata mund te jene nxenes, prinder te rinj,

That means that they can be students, young parents,

dhe te jene ne gjendje te perfshiheni

and be able to sort of duck and dive around the basics of cooking,

rreth gatimeve bazike,

no matter what recession hits them next time.

pa marr parasysh cfare recesioni i godit ata heren e ardhshme. Nese din te gatuash

If you can cook, recession money doesn't matter.

recensioni i parave nuk ka rendesi.

Nese di te gatuash, koha nuk ka rendesi.

If you can cook, time doesn't matter.

Vendi i punes. Ne nuk kemi folur edhe aq per ate.

The workplace, we haven't really talked about it.

You know, it's now time for corporate responsibility

E dini, tani eshte koha per pergjegjesi te perbashket

qe me te vertete te shikojme se me cka ushqehen ata

to really look at what they feed or make available to their staff.

ose te vene ne gatishmeri stafin e tyre.

Stafi jane nenat dhe baballret e femijeve amerikanë.

The staff are the moms and dads of America's children.

Marissa, her father died in her hand,

Marissa, babai i saj vdiq ne duart e saj,

Une mendoj qe ajo do te ishte e lumtur

I think she'd be quite happy

nese korporata e Amerikes mund te filloj te ushqej stafin e saj ne menyre te drejte.

if corporate America could start feeding their staff properly.

Definitivisht ata nuk duhen lene anash.

Definitely they shouldn't be left out.

Le te kthehemi perseri ne shtepi

Let's go back to the home.

Now, look, if we do all this stuff, and we can,

Tani, shiko, nese bejme te gjithe kete pune, dhe ne mundemi,

eshte shume e arritshme. Ju mund te kujdeseni dhe te jeni komercial.

it's so achievable.

You can care and be commercial.

Absolutely.

Apsulotisht.

But the home needs to start passing on cooking again, for sure.

Por, shtepija duhet te filloj te kaloj

gatimin perseri, sigurisht.

For sure, pass it on as a philosophy.

Sigurisht, kaloje si filozofi.

Dhe per mua eshte koxha romantike.

And for me, it's quite romantic,

Por nese nje njeri i meson tre njerez

but it's about if one person teaches three people

si te gatuajne dicka,

how to cook something,

dhe tani ata mesojne tre prej shokeve te tyre,

and they teach three of their mates,

that only has to repeat itself 25 times,

ate vetem duhet ta persersimin 25 here ne vetevete,

dhe kjo eshte e tere popullsia e Amerikes.

and that's the whole population of America.

Romantic, yes, but most importantly,

Romantike, po, por

me e rendesishme,

it's about trying to get people to realize

eshte mundesia per t'i bere njerezit te kuptojne

that every one of your individual efforts makes a difference.

qe secila perpjeke e juaj individuale

e bene nje ndryshim.

We've got to put back what's been lost.

Ne duhet te veme serish bashke ajo cka eshte humbur.

Kuzhina Huntington.Huntington, ku e kam bere kete program,

Huntington's Kitchen.

Huntington, where I made this program,

we've got this prime-time program

e dini, ne e kemi kete program kryesor qe shpresojme

do te inspiroj njerezit qe me te vertete te ndryshojne.

that hopefully will inspire people to really get on this change.

Une sinqerisht besoj qe ndryshimi do te ndodhë.

I truly believe that change will happen.

Kuzhina e Huntington-ve. Une punoj me nje komunitet.

Huntington's Kitchen. I work with a community.

Une kam punuar ne shkolla. Une kam gjetur financime te qendrueshme

I worked in the schools.

I found local sustainable funding

qe te kthej cdo shkolle ne kete zone,

to get every single school in the area from the junk, onto the fresh food:

nga ushqimi jo i shendetshem ne ushqim te fresket

six-and-a-half grand per school.

6,500 mije dollare per shkolle.

(Duartroktije)

(Applause)

Kjo eshte e gjitha qe duhet. 6,500 mije dollare per shkolle.

That's all it takes, six-and-a-half grand per school.

The Kitchen is 25 grand a month. Okay?

Kuzhina ne 25 grand per muaj. Ne rregull?

Kjo mund t'i beje 5,000 njerez ne vit,

This can do 5,000 people a year,

qe eshte 10 perqind e popullsise se tyre.

which is 10 percent of their population,

Dhe eshte njerez ne njerez.

and it's people on people.

You know, it's local cooks teaching local people.

E dini, eshte ushqimi lokal duke i mesuar njerezit lokal.

Jane mesime falas gatimi, mesime falas gatimi ne rrugen kryesore.

It's free cooking lessons, guys, in the Main Street.

Kjo eshte e vertete, ndryshim i prekshem dhe real.

This is real, tangible change, real, tangible change.

Around America, if we just look back now,

Rreth Amerikes, nese shikojme tani,

there is plenty of wonderful things going on.

ka plot gjera te mrekullushem .

There is plenty of beautiful things going on.

Ka shume gjera te bukura. Ka engjuj.

There are angels around America doing great things

per rreth Amerikes qe bejne gjera te mrekulllushme

ne shkolla, ferme tek strukturat e shkolles,

in schools -- farm-to-school set-ups,

strukturat e kopshtit, edukimi.

garden set-ups, education --

there are amazing people doing this already.

Ka njerez te mrekullueshem qe po e bjene ate tanime.

The problem is they all want to roll out

Problemi eshte se ata te gjithe kane deshire te rrokullisin ate cka jane duke bere

what they're doing to the next school,

ne shkolle tjeter, dhe tjetren.

but there's no cash.

Por nuk ka para te gatshme.

Ne duhet te njohim ekspertet dhe engjujt shpejt,

We need to recognize the experts and the angels quickly,

identify them, and allow them to easily find the resource

t'i identifikojme ata, dhe ti lejojme ata qe lehte te gjejne burimin

te vazhdojne te rrokullisin ate cka ata me te vertete jane duke e bere,

to keep rolling out what they're already doing,

dhe duke e bere mire.

and doing well.

Biznesi i Amerikes duhet te mbeshtes

Businesses of America need to support

Zonjen Obama t'i beje gjerat qe ajo ka deshire t'i beje.

Mrs. Obama to do the things that she wants to do.

(Duartroktije)

(Applause)

Dhe shiko, E di eshte e pazakonte

And look, I know it's weird

te keni nje person Anglez qe qendron parajush

having an English person standing here before you

duke folur rreth ketyre gjerave.

talking about all this.

All I can say is: I care.

Krejt cka mund te them eshte une shqetsohem. Une jam prind.

I'm a father,

Dhe une dua kete vend.

and I love this country.

Dhe une besoj sinqerisht,

And I believe truly, actually,

that if change can be made in this country,

nese ndryshimi mund te behet ne kete vend,

beautiful things will happen around the world.

gjera te bukura do te ndodhin rreth kesaj bote. Nese Amerika e bene ate

If America does it, other people will follow.

Une besoj qe njerez tjere do te na ndjekin.

Eshte jashtezakonisht e rendesishme.

It's incredibly important.

(Audience) Yeah!

(Duartroktije)

(Applause)

When I was in Huntington,

Kur isha ne Huntington, duke provuar t'i ve disa gjera te funksionojne

trying to get a few things to work when they weren't,

kur ata nuk ishin, mendoja po ta kisha shkopin magjik

I thought "If I had a magic wand, what would I do?"

cka do te nbeja? Dhe mendova, a e dini cka?

And I thought, "You know what?

Une thjesht do te doja te vendosesha perballe

I'd just love to be put in front of some of the most amazing

movers and shakers in America."

l

Dhe nje muaj me vone TED me telefonoj dhe ma dha kete cmim.

And a month later, TED phoned me up and gave me this award.

I'm here.

Jam ketu.

So, my wish.

Pra, lutja ima

Dyslexic, so I'm a bit slow.

Disleksia, pra une jam pak i ngadalshem.

Lutja ime

My wish

eshte per ju te ndihmoni nje levzije

is for you to help a strong, sustainable movement

te fuqishme dhe te qendrushme

te edukojme cdo femije

to educate every child

per ushqimin,

about food,

te inspirojme familjet te gatuajne perseri,

to inspire families to cook again,

dhe t'u japim mundesi njerezve kudo

and to empower people everywhere

to fight obesity.

te luftojne obezitetin.

(Duartroktije)

(Applause)

Faleminderit.

Thank you.

(Applause continues)

(Duartroktije)
