Are we seeing the begining of the food police?
Please. Stop. Just stop it. I’m not stupid. I know me Lucky Charms are not magic. I know Frosted Flakes are not …”Greaaaat” for you. I know Count Chocula isn’t a real monster and Tricks aren’t just for kids. Stop it pleaseeeeee.
The federal government is wading into the supermarket aisle, making its first effort to provide better nutritional information on food products since it developed the black-and-white Nutrition Facts label 15 years ago.

Silly voter, Tricks are for elected officials.
(Just ask Elliot)
Unhealthful foods will be taxed. Healthful foods will be regulated....and taxed.
I bet Cuba thought that too....
Back when Clinton was holding up his little white health card, I opined that when you swiped it at the check-out register, that your groceries would be pending an approval from the First Directorate of Dietary Compliance. A “Food Czar” if you will. Bacon? Put it back. And don’t let it happen again or your government healthcare would be suspended.
That's the real endgame of this whole Obamacare. Once they control the availability of your healthcare they essentially have a gun to your head.
I added the FDA to my rogue agency list when they decided they wanted to go after asthma inhalers that worked and private gardeners.
If you read Hillary’s healthcare take over, the word “prison” appeared 17 times. And you could be suspended or disqualified if you say, went to a doctor and tried to pay fee for service.
Denny Hestert was in a healthcare meeting with Hillary. She said the government would tell people when to go to the doctor. Hestert said he said to himself, “that’s tyrannical”.
If the Fed was truly concerned about unhealthy foods they would ban their purchase from those using EBT cards(food stamps).
But that would cause such a negative uproar among the Dem voter base there is no way it would ever be considered.

They are also wading into your household backyard garden...claiming they have the right to ‘inspect’ your safe methods of growing food.
Thses fools think milk comes from Safeway...they are ignorant of the part the cow plays.
