BOULDER, Colo. (AP) -- Boulder residents will no longer be able to cool off with an ice cream cone by the pool because the city has discontinued the sweet treat as a vending option at all Parks and Recreation facilities.
The city dropped ice cream cones, bars and sandwiches in an effort to cut down on sugary, unhealthy snacks, The Daily Camera reported (http://bit.ly/29c8YoD). City-run facilities can only sell treats that satisfy a series of nutritional standards, meaning chips and other junk food also left snack stands this year.

THC Ice Cream...I think I’m about to become a millionaire...
Ah, the Nanny State.
What I can’t really imagine is why ANYONE, including liberals, would want to live in the world they’re forcing upon us. Fun? NO! Freedom?! HELL, NO!
Ice cream... BAD! Men in girl’s bathrooms? GOOD! Guns? Really, really bad! Terrorists? Welcome! Come on in!
Leftists are a danger to our society and our world. Perhaps even the biggest danger. They should never be allowed to have power at any level over ANYTHING.
Have they stopped selling Baby Ruth Bars?
Don’t want one dropped in the Pool by mistake.
Liberals are so inconsistent in their criteria for evaluating situations.
On the one hand, liberals are pro-choice on the abortion question, insisting it must be a woman’s choice, based on her own beliefs.
On the other hand, we need to ban ice cream treats because too much of this is bad for you.
On another subject, liberals tend to be anti-choice when it comes to school vouchers, against the rights of parents to choose where to send their kids to school.
This story comes from a place where marijuana is legal, so they are pro-choice on marijuana. It’s your choice whether to ingest that drug.
And on the other hand, people like Bloomberg in New York wanted to ban sodas above a certain number of ounces.
Liberals are the ones who want to make all these rules and laws for the rest of us to live by.
But the criteria are not consistent. If we need to be pro-choice, then dammit, they need to be pro-choice on everything, not just on certain subjects.
Good point
DO THOSE WHO VOTED TO BAN ICE CREAM STILL HAVE THEIR TEETH? IF THOSE WHO VOTED TO BAN ICE CREAM STILL HAVE THEIR TEETH-WHY DO THEY STILL HAVE THEIR TEETH?
These nutrition-nazis wouldn’t issue you as “permit”.
Unfortunately, half of the country likes being lorded over by big brother.
Everyone likes some ice cream after they smoke a little weed.
Liberals: the 21st century’s Puritans — minus the religion.
Minus Real religion, perhaps.
They worship gaia, abortion, algore, the clintons......
... from my cold, sticky hands.
So instead of providing things that people actually want, they fill the machines with crap that will rot and ultimately be tossed out.
Real brainiacs those libtards.
Oy. This is insane.
Yup, or school cafeterias.
That’s exactly right. And if Hitlery becomes president, we’ll have a full blown dictatorship. There will be no one to stop her. She’d make Obama look like a Boy Scout. One of her first tasks would be to unleash the demons from hell upon her enemies/opponents.
The nanny government, ruins enjoyment for the skinny because of the fatties.
