Michelle Obama Takes Credit for Food ‘Culture Change’
Big Government (Breitbart) ^ | February 26, 2015 | Darlene Superville (Associated Press)

WASHINGTON (AP) — Michelle Obama said Thursday that the U.S. has undergone a “culture change” in the five years since she started raising awareness about childhood obesity, but as she celebrated achievements on multiple fronts the first lady also warned that the progress is “incredibly fragile.”

That’s because special interests “whose first priority is not our kids’ health” are “waiting for us to get complacent or bored and move on to the next trendy issue,” Mrs. Obama said at an annual health summit. She cited the fight over a recent child nutrition law as an example.

Food culture? Starving kids.
Just go to Sidwell school and see their lunches, not brown fruit, mystery meat and weird bread.

If she cared about American kids she would be embarrassed at the skanky swill on kids lunch plates.

Moochelle has done this just to be mean and punish the American people.

I despise these two dirtbags to the bone.

Oh, bull. We Americans are still eating meat, dairy and processed food. Stick it, Michele.

Is that why most of the kids who take school lunches throw the food in the garbage? I haven’t noticed that old lard butt has lost any weight since the “food culture” has changed. She needs to be sent on a permanent NON PAID vacation, perhaps to Africa.

When we can afford it we do. The local BBQ place has signs up lately that they no longer serve beef shortribs because of the cost.

Completely and utterly irresponsible. One of the top causes of anorexia and bulimia are suggestions and fear in early adolescence regarding obesity. Ironically another is the healthy eating suggestion which can also lead to eating disorders in children.

Growing up I hated celery and a few other things. Now nothing is taboo for me. Okra is wonderful. A beautiful plant and great food—just gotta know how to cook it.

Yes, Moocher, I’ve seen a much skinnier population (NOT).

Things like short ribs, brisket, skirt steak should be cheap. But because people have discovered their amazing taste, it has shot up in cost. That, and anti-beef regulations, have made it incredibly expensive. The only cheap meat I can buy is pork.

I do believe the current government is trying to shut down the food supply. Fastest way to implement fascism.
