its full of gay goodness
Since none of us really knows why he can't get up in the morning and make his son's lunch, why don't we ask him?

I just did.
I have always dispised fluff, and am no fan of marshmallows either...
Now, Goober Grape on the other hand....
In Massachusetts they ordered the father of a kindergartener out of the school when he complained they were teaching his child about homosexuality. The school claimed they had no need to inform parents and the father had no right to complain.
This politicians complains about a sandwich and apparently thinks it's okay to use police to keep a parent away from a school.
No wonder tens of thousands of people are moving out of Massachusetts.
I live in MN.
We think you all are a bunch of knuckleheads for electing the senators you got.
well, actually some of us Wellstone Minnesotanss wish we had your senators.
Actually, it does make sense. Schools teach fluff, why not feed them Fluff??
Oh yea? Well I'm outraged that you didn't just make your son his own lunch. Putz!
Careful, I hear you can go blind from that.
They need to bring back Koogle.
As long as the school is using dietitian advice to verify its lunches overall are nutritionally reasonable, they could put peppermint candy in their sandwiches for all it matters. So many carbs, proteins, fats, with so many vitamins, minerals overall. There's plenty of room for the extra couple hundred calories of carbs from the marshmallow creme, if they serve it opposite a low calorie vegetable. It's no more "evil" than a boiled potato.
And liberals have no monopoly on it either.
Diet soda has hardly any calories either, but virtually no nutritional value. And artificial sweetner.
I'm not a nutritionist by any means, but I'd go with the pizza because it has some cheese (dairy) and tomato sauce (it was related to a fruit or veg at one time).
A peanutbutter sandwich wouldn't be bad at all, but why throw in all the empty calories and sugar from the fluff stuff? I've never had this, but I've heard folks rave about peanutbutter and banana. Sounds sweet enough, and even adds some fibre! And a real fruit!
I think of it as teaching kids to make better judgements given options. We can't force them to pick the best item, but all the alternatives should be decent. If Micky D's fries were a choice, I'd bet most kids would choose that. Did they learn anything? Did they get a good lunch?
The sarcasm was understood. Maybe a dry humor tag is needed.
=============
MICROWAVE FUDGE
3 c. sugar
3/4 c. butter [1.5 sticks*]
2/3 c. evaporated milk [one of those little 5 oz. cans]
1 (12 oz.) pkg. semi-sweet chocolate chips**
1 (7 oz.) jar marshmallow creme
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. chopped nuts, (optional)
Microwave butter in 4 quart bowl or casserole on High 1 minute or until melted.
Add sugar and milk; mix well.
Microwave on High 3 minutes then stir.
Then microwave for 2 minutes. Stir.
Microwave 3 minutes. Stir.
Microwave on High 2 1/2 more minutes.
Stir in vanilla. Then add marshmallow whip and chips. (If you're adding nuts put them in now, after chips) Stir till blended.
Pour into buttered (or no-stick spray) pans.*** Allow to cool. (In this house that's about 25 seconds!) Makes approx. 3lbs.
=====================================
* "Sticks" means sticks! Real (stick) margarine is okay, if you must. But none of that soft whip/buttery spread stuff.
** Don't limit yourself to just semi-sweet. ANY baking chips will work: milk chocolate, butterscotch, white chocolate, peanut butter, etc. Some of the best fudge I ever made was 1/2 bag milk chocolate + 1/2 bag peanut butter.
*** Pans 8x8 or 9x9 = thick-as-your-thumb-is-long fudge. Sheet cake pans = more fudge pieces but a lot thinner. Me? I use the 9x11 "brownie" pan.
Fluff is unhealthy? No more so than having a household with two daddies...
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Gonna try some this weekend, along with roasting the last of the winter butternut squash. The house is going to smell great.
Wow! I feel better about ours, even though I'm still not happy about it. We're about a fifth of that and that's more than where we used to live. (But who would want to live there anyway?)
He's openly gay and doesn't like Fluff? Thtop it!
