Jack WU – Set a Good Example
Jack WU – Set a Good Example Jack WU appears regularly as a host of music, variety and informative programmes and acts in a number of drama series.

Jack is a loving father and husband, who is well known for his healthy image. Naturally, the conversation turns to his baby daughter Jay. He said, "A child is just like a blank piece of paper. They learn everything we adults say or do every day." Realising that parents have a big influence on a child, Jack and his wife, June CHAN, have committed to encourage their daughter to adopt healthy eating habits by setting a good example.

Jack WU – Set a Good Example "Many restaurants use flavour enhancers and other additives in their dishes, so we prefer to have meals at home," Jack said. Jack has observed that many parents are having problems in teaching children table manners, so he has arranged Jay to join the rest of the family at meals since she was six or seven months old.

Apart from vegetables, the WU family also eats plenty of fishes, as June and her father are both very fond of eating fish. They also use healthy cooking oils such as canola oil and olive oil. More importantly, June rented a small plot of farmland to grow vegetables two years ago and the family always has the privilege of eating "home-grown" Indian lettuce, broccoli and Chinese white cabbage.
