Bread, cheese, tomato sauce and potatoes are bad. Got it.

Pass a law requiring term limits and dismantle the public school system.

My great-uncle died at age 93 after a long life serving as a Catholic priest, which included a stint in a Japanese internment camp during the war.

He picked up the habit of chewing tobacco while in the missions. When he died at 93 New York State listed “tobacco use” as a contributing cause of death on his death certificate.

Just had to have the statistic.

Oh geez! Let the kids have their junk food. How petty.

I agree with you-and besides, that pre-packaged whole grain bread, 1-2 ounces of canned/packaged mystery meat and a couple tablespoons of mostly canned and/or overcooked veggies is not healthy food-it is processed packaged stuff that has almost no nutritional value with or without sodium and added sugar. Healthy food is fresh cooked meat, veggies, fruit, and fresh baked bread.

Oh the horror! All I can think of in reply is the chorus to a song I have otherwise forgotten:

Corn Mazola
RC Cola
TV Dinners
A Plate of Twinkies
I need a big burrito
Lord, they keep me clean (yes, they keep me clean, oh, they keep me clean).

(If anyone remembers who did that song, give me a ping, please) : )

About time. At least those aren’t immediately thrown in the garbage by Moo’s starving children.

They came for our pizza and no one complained. They came for our sloppy joe and no one was left to complain.

I would happily off myself before I’d go to one of those prisons-I will die with my freedom. I come from a family who believes God will punish you if you send a family member there to be tortured in their last years.

Way back in the good ole days, we had wonderful lunches. We also got to play outside every day just like we did when we got home. In all my school years, I knew 2 over weight kids. From 1-6 grades, we had 2 recesses plus lunch time to play. Then, the powers that be got rid of the high swings, slides, etc because a kid just might get hurt. I don’t remember a single one getting injured. We were being educated, too. No one passed without earning it. Education is not what is happening today.

Pizza and French fries are awesome. I must find a way to combine the two for dinner tonight.

Mmmmm. You are speaking of the elusive Bacon-Cheeseburger Pizza... One of the best_things_on_earth.

You can make one at home... I'll bet you can name every ingredient off the top of your head (that's the fun of it).

Easy on the mustard (use a dark, smoky mustard) and dill pickle... and deep fry the fries before the fact... add them in the last 5 min. Lettuce and tomato sliced thin and added cold, after the fact.

In this country, parents decide what to feed their children.
In a socialist country, the state decides what to feed their children. Parents have all the info they need on
the net, their doctors, etc. regarding proper nutrition.

When my late husband was dying from liver cancer, he needed pain medicine but the nurse said, “no, he might get addicted!” Either my niece or daughter went and told her he needed it now and to give it to him. No one messes with either lady and he got the pain med. We just did not understand where their common sense was.

“Health advocates are blasting provisions in federal funding legislation...”

They’re not health advocates, they’re Nazis.

There’s not that much wrong with a sliced of loaded {the works} pizza once a week. The French Fries? LOL I hate to inform the Food Patrol Morons this but the Fries are usually BAKED not deep fried in places like schools & hospitals etc. Main reason is safety and speed. Four trays of fries in a high speed oven can feed a couple hundred in school portions.

The AMA needs to eat the garbage they are feeding the kids now. Beef and bean burritos, soybean steak fingers, etc. Not only that but the quantities are so skimpy that the kids are ready for their dinner by 4:00 in the afternoon.
