Liberals like to use government to force their worldview on others, from as high up and as far away as they can, preferably with layers of bureaucracy between you–the more people to finger for their own failure the better. So when Michelle Obama spun her domestic web of progressive meddling across the public school lunch … Read more
Compare this: @MichelleObama my school lunch while eating with my daughter. Only other choice was a scoop of salad. This is sad! pic.twitter.com/5iPvg2nsAa — Megan Howell (@Howelady) March 14, 2014 with this as the Trump Administration is relaxing the overbearing rules set by Michelle’s “you will eat what I tell you to eat” school lunch … Read more
The hubris of knowledge… Yo, Michelle Obama, The House You Wake Up In Was Rebuilt Under Harry Truman. “Okay, America, it’s time for a history lesson. When the First “Lady,” Michelle Obama, claimed recently that the house she wakes up in every day was “built by slaves” the poor woman didn’t realize just how badly … Read more
As I mentioned here, Michelle Obama’s signature act as co-Progressive President is swirling the waste can – and now, more schools (in Wyoming) are dumping her program into the hopper as well (reformatted, emphasis mine): Seven Wyoming schools have decided to go it alone when it comes to serving their kids lunch, saying “goodbye” to the … Read more
Steve has done good work in covering the fiasco-in-progress (here and here), so I have just a bit to add to the story: One government official tried to put the blame on the students. “One thing I think we need to keep in mind as kids say they’re still hungry is that many children aren’t … Read more
Michelle Obama, the grand dame of the lousy school lunch, has leveraged her fame at our misfortune into another likely cash cow. She’s the wind beneath the wings of a new “healthy” drink called Plezi that is anything but healthy.
For the record, I have no idea what prison food looks like but I did check the internet so I think I’m on solid ground.
The School Nutrition Association (SNA) which represents 54,000 school cafeteria professionals see the Trump Presidency as an opportunity to roll back some of the overreaches of the Obama years. [su_quote]SNA supports maintaining robust federal nutrition standards to ensure all students receive nutritious, well-balanced meals at school. However, some overly prescriptive rules have resulted in unintended consequences, … Read more
Oakland Schools have partnered with Social Justice Enviro Wacko Group Friends of the Earth (FOE) to promote the Green Agenda™ through the lunch menu. FOE gave kids a lunch menu designed to eliminate foods it says are “unsustainable for our planet.” The new menu features far less meat and more plant-based food. Any meat or cheese the … Read more
The improperly named ‘Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act,’ Michelle Obama’s signature school lunch program, is getting something of a reboot to address issues “on the ground.” I honestly do not see what the FDA and Gov’t Inc. are upset about. Costs are up, waste is at a historic high, and kids are still hungry. It sounds like a … Read more
It’s Hunger Games from DC. After all, don’t they know what is BEST for us all – even if the lunch programs are losing money, food is just thrown away, and kids opt out by brown bagging it, scampering out to the closes fast food joint, or go into a homegrown “food black market”. We’ve … Read more
Essentially, that is what she has said to America – my your children will only know what I allow and then they will LOVE it! I read FAR more posts from around the blogosphere than what I can ever write about so I’m in the process of going back to some of those old ones … Read more
(Cartoon H/T: Liberty Unyielding) And here’s some proof that Obama’s Progressive agenda (translation: we WILL tell you how to do everything and anything) is making life more and more difficult for everyone). Each and everyone of these reduces Freedom (and you can’t tell me that even the majority of this is “for my own good”): … Read more
And given the real partisanship in the country, they must REALLY be betting that more of their customers are Left of center than Right: They probably won’t promote their 6-inch big hot pastrami sandwich, but the Subway chain of restaurants is partnering with first lady Michelle Obama’s campaign to persuade kids to eat healthier meals. … Read more
Someone, bless their heart, has compiled a well-sourced (their words) list of 519 examples of Barack Obama’s lying, corruption, law-breaking and cronyism. I am posting it as is with the understanding that it may take me days or even weeks to go through it, if I ever do manage to get through it. I encourage … Read more
Conservatives believe that the best government is a limited one and the closer to to the Citizens it is supposed to serve, the better. That way, it is much easier for Citizens to correct the actions and decisions made by their public servants. After all, local is where life is lived and when things go … Read more
School districts from LA to NY are complaining and now a few of them are taking matters into their own hands. “We’re eating more junk food, now, than last year”, a student from the Los Angeles Unified School District explained in December of 2011. We’re talking about Michelle Obama’s Healthy Kids Hungry act, passed by … Read more
Being programmed by the state has finally hit kids where they live–in the stomach. And there is an important lesson to be learned if the kids and their stomachs are listening. That lesson is this: Federal mandates apply force, limit choices, and result in waste, and that is exactly what has happened thanks to Michelle … Read more
S.3307 (2010) is the legislation that empowered the Feds to regulate local school lunches. It is the regulation that is driving up the cost of school lunches by law because the law demands parity of price regardless of cost. It is the law that limits the number of calories and other nutritional elements to a national standard, … Read more
President Joe Biden says 24 million Americans “suffer from food insecurity!” News anchors were shocked that there is “food insecurity in the richest country in the world!” ABC hosts turned “insecurity” into “hunger.” But in my new video, Rachel Sheffield, who researches welfare policy at the Heritage Foundation, explains, “Food insecurity is not the same … Read more
