Michelle Obama is today launching a campaign to tackle childhood obesity in America – while admitting that she loves unhealthy food.
The First Lady has urged children to become more active, but confesses to eating burgers, fries, ice-cream and cake.

It also pushes for schools to offer more healthy meals and calls on food companies to label nutritional information more accurately.
Some of her initiatives, such as tax breaks for grocery stores to move into poorly served communities, will require congressional action.
‘I would move heaven and earth to give my kids all the chance in the world for them to be at the top of their game in every way, shape and form,’ Mrs Obama said.

This is as absurd as a safe schools representative (okay, I forgot the pervert’s title and I’m too lazy to look it up) advocating for NAMBLA ... and sadly this White House has both.
Nothing is ever left behind when people move out of Government housing.
All the good burger joints are down South. I’m moving.
I do like big butts and I can not like.
Five Guys is the best burgers
I couldn’t agree more. We have a couple of them in South Bend, IN and I have been to them often. They are clean, cheerful and the food is delicious. I don’t like much about the Obama’s, but they do have good taste in burgers and fries.
