Triple Lutz Report-–Kids Will Always Love Junk Food-–Episode 156
The Financial Survival Network ^ | 01/30/2012 | Kerry Lutz

Jamie Oliver is a one man healthy food crusader, but he has met his match. He actually expected LA public school students to give up the flavor of a real beef cheeseburger for a wheat bread burger. After all, it's so much better for you. And like a liberal statist, he knows what's better for you and your kids than you do. However, when forced substitution of healthy foods was attempted, guess what happened? Kids voted with their knives and forks and dumped the healthy gruel into the garbage.

Hopefully the same thing will happen with the forced consumption of inferior educational services. The American public education system is an unmitigated failure. It's amazing that it went from being the best in the world, to being among the worst. The education decline took place at the same time as the ascendancy of teacher unionization. And there's nothing coincidental about this either. But now we are at a turning point. Apple just introduced newly created textbooks for the iPad2, and they're amazing. So do not despair, the internet is doing to the the educational monopoly what it did to the travel industry, the stock brokerage industry, the music industry and so many others before it. Pretty soon the educational experience will help students to soar to new heights.

What the hell is a wheat bread burger?

Probably doesn’t deserve to be called a burger, that’s for sure.

We grown-ups will always like junk food,too. I had 4 cans of soda today. I’m sorry but I can’t give up soda or junk food,at least not entirely.

For those of you who drink Mt.Dew,bromated vegetable oil is a flame retardant.

I guess I’m screwed because I’ve consumed it in the past.

I have Systemic Candidas.

I cannot eat sugar or yeast of any kind, especially natural sugar (no fruit). They are on my "do not eat" list.

I can, however, eat Fritos and Potato Chips. They are on my "you can eat" list.

I wish these clowns would let kids eat what they want, and then let them run around during recess and gym instead of stacking silly cups!

I think the kids gave a similar reaction in liberal San Francisco a few years ago when the same sort of BS menus were set up by specialist nutritionists. Most kids started skipping out of school and eating off campus.

The cafeterias starte losing money big time because of all the wasted food.
