Medical diet practitioners (real ones, not wacky libs who have an agenda) will tell you that
growing children need fat, proteins, carbohydrates, and suger---all those "bad" things. Their bodies are in a stage of generation and transformation. This is not to say they should eat Fruit Gushers and Tasty Cakes all day--lest they become obese.

But they cannot function on asparagus shakes and soybean smoothies. To many liberals, these diets are their "religion."

Very true. A diet that excludes meat, but includes dairy products can be prefectly healthy (I've been a lacto-ovo vegetarian for 20 years). But a no animal products diet is absolutely not capable of sustaining good health.

Political correctness is their religion. There are many laws of PC. Violate one and you are a bad person. Don't question any of them. Obey, obey, obey.
It is a tyranny of the left that puts a little censor in everyone's head, making us stop and pause before saying a word like "mailman" these days so we don't offend someone.

IIRC, in Britain feeding children a strictly macrobiotic diet is considered child abuse.
