Now, wait just a minute . . . the photos of ALL the other countries’ lunches are all on the same kind of plate. That tells me they’re “re-creations,” rather than real photos of actual lunches. So, while I’m no fan of what the poor U.S. kids have to put up with these days, these lunches as shown are not completely and fully accurate, I think.

The US has a federal Department of Education that spreads its tentacles into every almost every school in the land.

Get rid of the D of E and maybe the lunches would improve.

Yea, I’m not buying it. It’s obviously a dramatisation, and there is no telling what schools in Europe they are referring too? Public schools? I think not, not unless it’s in a like Greenzone for the Wealthy and powerful.

Michelle has done such a great job in bringing up the next generation of constitutional conservatives. She has the Republican party beat when it comes to getting the younger generation to embrace conservative, traditional American values I’ll give her that if nothing else.

And that mystery meat looks like it was scrapped from the bottom of a toxic waste barrel. Unreal that leftists essentially want to force kids who can’t afford a private school to eat that.

The silver lining in this one could be that an entire generation of Americans is learning to hate and fear the democrat party.

The article shows food on several different kinds of trays.

Several of the lunches do appear on the same basic tray but I'd give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they simply put the various meals on trays at hand for the photo shoot. They certainly didn't travel to all of those places to take pictures of a lunch tray.....

Sweetgreen’s school lunch post:

Which is an advertisement for this restaurant chain’s promotion to donate money to FoodCorp (a NGO)
They are also trying to work in more cafeterias throughout the country with their own foodservice program.
https://foodcorps.org/about/our-funders-partners
FoodCorps is affiliated with AmeriCorps and USDA
Michelle Approved...

School kids eat very well in France because the French have decided that they deserve to, at least that’s what I came away with after hearing a radio program about school lunches in France and other European countries several months ago, and they don’t eat off of plastic trays, either.

And you can bet your last dime the First Witch is NOT eating the crap nor are her children in Private School WE pay for.

Hospitals are also adopting the Witch’s meal plan. How is a sick person supposed to improve when the food is inedible?

And you IDIOTS who work in DIETARY do you know what the term LOW SODIUM MEANS? I’m sick and tired of those liquid diets that contain more SODIUM on 1 tray than I’m allowed all day! You send me into a Meniere’s attack with just 1 of your trays of OVER SALTED garbage. Oh, I can taste the Chems in those RED pop cycles and Hunts jello cups.

When a 20 yr Navy man turns up his nose at your crap it really is CRAP!

The picture of American children’s food truly represents what MO thinks them.

The chickens are coming home to roost and the children get to eat their droppings.

Shame on her for feeding that filth to the very people’s children, the American taxpayers who support their extravagant lifestyle.

Any doubt on her feelings for Americans?

It is what a majority of those that voted said, via their vote, they wanted.
