Aside from the obvious fact that the article is full of lies, for those with the interest to actually open up the LA Times article they will find a “related article” printed on the same LA Times on July 17 2011 in the side bar titled

This article published in the Times last week quotes a legitimate study that directly disproves and contradicts every bit of the rational for Michelle Obama’s food initiative
