DeVito calls for healthy food in schools

Danny Devito is throwing his support behind celebrity chef Jamie Oliver's campaign to improve food in American public schools.

The chef has been trying to convince US officials to revamp school lunches to include more nutritious options for students.

DeVito has now pledged to help Oliver on his food crusade, insisting it's important for kids to adopt a healthy lifestyle at a young age.

In a series of posts on his Twitter.com page, DeVito writes, "Got up again to talk about Jamie Oliver and his passion about getting kids to start on a good diet and fight the sugar and salt. Let's help!

"Got to do something... Talk to kids and get them on board. We have to do it. We have to talk about the future. Let's not suck our kids into an additive life of soda pop and candy. He wants our children to get with a correct program of health... We have to rebalance our lifestyles to fit the future."
