There are a lot of good values being taught in anime and manga. Recently, there is one which fascinates me. It is "Toriko".

"In a world where the taste and texture of food is extremely important, there exist individuals known as Gourmet Hunters
(美食屋 Bishokuya?) who specialize in the acquisition of rare ingredients and animals. Toriko is one of these hunters and it is his dream to find the most precious foods in the world and create the ultimate dinner course. As one of the most skilled hunters in the world, he is regularly hired by restaurants and the rich to seek out new ingredients and rare animals. A man with inhuman ability, he utilizes his incredible strength and knowledge of the animal kingdom to capture ferocious, evasive, and rare beasts to further his ultimate goal. He is accompanied by a weak and timid chef named Komatsu who, inspired by Toriko's ambition, travels with him to improve his culinary skills and to find rare ingredients. An organization that seeks to take control of the world's entire food supply increases the struggle." - Wikipedia

It can actually incorporate information about things in reality into its fantasy food... sometimes.. :p This actually exemplifies a point which was taught in my infocom lesson. Obtaining knowledge can be fun and interesting when the medium used is engaging. I thought it is super cool :o I always knew that anime/manga demonstrates positive values, but this is the first time that I noticed a manga including "real world information?".
