Weren't you a fat guy at one time? With the rates of childhood obesity and early onset type II diabetes, it is pretty clear a lot of parents aren't helping their kids make good food choices these days.
Pay now or pay later; field trips or trips to the doctor's office for insulin shots.
Not the governments responsibility to mandate what our kids can and cant eat at school. Thats should be up to the schools/locals officials and parents. Different states have different culinary tastes and trying mandate what kids eat is overbearing and an abuse of federal authority, especially since michelle obama has zero fucking authority to do anything.
Its one thing to encourage parents to start taking an interest in their kids health and eating habits, but trying to ram it down their throats is only going to make kids go the other way and want nothing to do with it.
I believe many of the schools that tried this reported that most of their kids simoky started bringing their own lunches with even shittier food because they refuse to eat the shit menu obama is trying to force on the entire country, and that they've lost more dollars in sales than they gained in federal aid, so they said fuck it and went back to their old system and gave up the fed dollars.
