New Yorks Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake school district has become the latest casualty in first lady Michelle Obamas preferred lunch plan, dropping the menu after too many students complained of hunger.
[Food service manager Nicky] Boehm and her staff worked hard to implement the new regulations, but there were just too many problems and too many foods that students did not like and would not purchase, said Assistant Superintendent Chris Abdoo about the National School Lunch Program in a statement reported by EAGNews.org. Students complained of being hungry with these lunches and the district lost money.
Undaunted, the nattering nabobs from the nanny state will soon be pushing Greek yogurt on the starving schoolkids.
U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer says New York is one of four states chosen to participate in a U.S. Department of Agriculture pilot program to purchase Greek yogurt for schools.

The very idea that children have the same nutritional needs as a fifty-year old overweight black woman is narcissistic beyond belief.
Michelles needs have nothing to do with this show she is putting on.
Paula Deen knows how Michelle really eats.
All of this is garbage for the Michelle show.
Can we dump Michelle since the majority of us complain of nausea when listening to her? (Another wench with the IQ of an MSM news reader who boinked her way into the public eye.)
IIRC there is a Greek yogurt monopoly in NYS. I’m sure he finances Schumer in return for government funding.
Or that a high school athlete needs the same amount of calories as a computer geek.
eat your peas and shut up.
Michelle’s plan for school lunches: It costs way too much, people don’t want it, has unintended consequences, and as it begins to get implemented people hate it.
Barky’s plan for socialized healthcare: It costs way too much, people don’t want it, has unintended consequences, and as it begins to get implemented people hate it.
Libtarded socialist central planning at work... always the same outcome.
How dare they question the judgment of their betters.
No doubt the maker of Greek yogurt is a major Democrat contributor. Otherwise, why in the world would someone have such a stupid notion?
Greek yogurt is really good, it just has less whey than regular yogurt.
And Yoplay (sp) is not yogurt, if that’s what the kids have been eating no wonder they think regular yogurt is gross.
People has excepted the socialist school lunch program because it is in many cases a free hand out so what is there really to be said.
The kids need to get used to being hungry. That will prepare them for 0bamaworld. Which is where they will live should all his destruction remain in place.
Greek yogurt is just regular yogurt with less whey.
Are you sure there is a lobby for that?
Nearly every yogurt manufacture makes Greek yogurt.
Why are “First Lady” and “regulations” in the same paragraph? Who elected her?
