U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack told members of the National Restaurant Association on Monday that Americans need to “adjust” their tastes so that they like the kind of food the government believes they should eat—and “we have to make sure that what we do is create the appropriate transition.”

Quit yer complaining, and eat your tree-bark and twigs.
You are so right on, you have NO idea! Thanks for being a voice of reason.
I don’t think it is their doing...we can think our o wn first fashion diva, Moochelle and her progressive cronies!
thank our own...sorry for lack of proofing.
create an appropriate transition for the Secretary in 2013 so he can get on with his life’s work.
Brownies made with black beans. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I had to eat far too many beans as a kid because it was all we had. I hate dried beans of any kind and I will not eat them because I’m 70 and no one can tell me what to eat.
Sieg Heil!
The only thing we’re going to transition is our government.
.....and this will necessarily cause the cost of food to skyrocket
This is about as anti-freedom as it gets and has NO place in our Country.
This is kind of weird. I decide what to feed the livestock and pets because I own them ... so ... does the government think it owns the people?
They are already bullying food producers of all stripes.
Have you noticed the lack of taste and quality in some products.
Once companies start taking losses for products no one wants to buy anymore, Obama will blame them for poor quality.
Or Harvard, not much ideological difference either way.
Now that their footing my medical bills (with my money) I guess it’s only fair they tell me what to eat. Excuse me, I have to go jog to my compulsory calisthenics class, comrade

Sebelius, Vilsack Announce Feds’ Plan to Subsidize Fruits and Veggies at Unveiling of New Dietary Guidelines

“The guidelines, which are required by Congress and are updated, as needed, every five years, also set a 300 milligram limit of cholesterol and encourage people to eat more chicken and fish and to avoid beef, which is defined as a “solid fat.””
~~~~~~~~~
Beef is now defined as a solid fat?
Got constitution? Obviously, not.
Since they own our bodies now via ObamaCare, this is the next logical step. We need to stop messing up their actuarial tables.
Yes, I have noticed...I believe there were threads denoting changes in Campbell Soups, etc. They are using different salts? etc.
What I find very troubling is that these government “initiatives” started with helpful suggestions to children, then government mandated to schools re: vending machines and meals.
Now government has begun to nudge restaurants and change adults menus...
I see incremental steps of government control...socialism on the move!!!
Just leave my grub alone.
Death by hamburger?The starvation death of Barak Obama at the hands of the 1st lawdee?Why does he have coke with everything?
