Michelle Obama is not a nutritionist. She is not a doctor. And she is not elected. Yet she is pushing the way school children eat, and imposing rules that her own children do not have to adhere to through the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act which was passed in 2010. And it is the Obama way to change behavior by force without input from those most affected.
The idea of improving school lunches was a fine idea, and there were surely a raft of consultants who weighed in on the program development. But as is the case with so many government attempts to butt in where it is not wanted, the program has been a dismal failure.
The new food choices are abysmal and exceedingly meager. So bad, in fact, that the internet has been flooded with pictures taken by school children of food that is generally unidentifiable, unappetizing, and plain old inedible.
This by kids who often depend for their nutritional needs to be met by meals served at school. Sodium, sugar, white grains, and condiments are limited or prohibited. Food that school children like to eat has essentially disappeared.
Millions of school provided meals are ending up in the trash can, and a black market for salt, sugar, and other items has developed at many schools. And incredibly, the cost for serving these bland, unappetizing and unwanted meals is costing more than expected. Given the fact that a state like Alabama was given over $210 million by the Federal government to serve these meals, it is truly astonishing that the program is over budget.
Additionally, over 1.4 million school children have stopped eating school lunches since the program was started. But Michelle and the government have a plan. It is called force.
New plan to force kids to eat up, page 2:
how can they do that? She’s not a elected official and has no power to pass or enforce rules. The Dem’s have hoped they’ve dumbed down America to the point that anything they say, people believe they must follow. There’s more than dumb-Dem’s out here, there are people willing to think and act for themselves!
Yes you think as a parent that you are in charge of your eating habits like Mcdonalds or fast-food because of course your kids love it you have raised them on a lifestyle of eating that will kill them at a young age I was amazed when I saw Burger King bring in burgers for my kids to have a school lunch and of course fries and of course the kids gobbled it down when I was a kid we had regular nutritious meals and not anyone in our school was ever sick or with asthma or other related sicknesses due to their diets kids need a balanced diet and if they’re throwing their balanced nutritious diet away it’s because they don’t get it at home and they’re not too taught to eat right what is good for them kids don’t get their way that’s why they have parents to teach them they don’t tell you what they’re going to eat you put a nutritious meal in front of them and that’s what they will eat believe me they’re not going to starve they’re going to eventually eat it I am for Michelle Obama’s Crackdown on school lunches and if your kids don’t like it and your money is going out the window too bad the government has your child at best interest what’s wrong with apples and fruit and milk wholesome grains and good food that will nourish and bring your child more productivity forebrain function something had to be done and I’m glad Michelle did it and I hope it doesn’t change kids do not need sugar white flower all of these things that bring sickness and disease open your eyes parents and see that she is trying to do something for the kids and for the black community of kids to make the kids grow like they’re supposed to grow for good eyesight and good health
