TULSA, Oklahoma - Some Oklahoma parents are concerned about how little their kids are getting to eat at school.
The portions were small but based on federal guidelines. Those guidelines are based on First Lady Michelle Obama's initiative to tackle childhood obesity.
“Chicken nuggets, with broccoli, beans and milk,” said student, Promise Fleming. “It was awful.”
Student, A'mika Ware said, “It's not fully cooked and it makes my stomach hurt.”
Their complaints are being heard loud and clear nationwide.
TPS's nutrition director said the meals teach kids how to eat well. "They can tell their parents ‘hey, I need to have milk to drink, I need to have fruit or to eat some vegetables,' instead of drinking soda pop and a bag of chips.”
Student Lov'ee Ware said, “I like healthy, it's just, I don't like it when it's, like, undercooked,” she said. “I'd rather, like, have pizza with an apple and some chips.”
The School Nutrition Association of Oklahoma is trying to appeal the existing federal standards.

I’m thinking that’s not a picture of Lov’ee. Who would name their child (boy child) Lov’ee?

Michelle Obama told her own kids “Nobody cares what you have for lunch”
But she cannot keep her nose out of other kids lunches

How about they just make these rules apply to kids that are actually FAT, while not counting the athletes muscles as fat

That is a very liberal statement.
How about letting the parents of each kid decide what to feed them.
It isn’t up to you or the government to say who is fat or skinny, or who eats what and when.
So a kid is overweight. That is his issue. Not yours. Fat kids still have to eat. I’m sure they would also like their lunch to taste good.

They should start composting projects with the wasted
lunches and sell the finished product to local gardeners.
