Who Is the Mystery Food Monitor?
No agency has said it employed the person checking preschoolers' lunch bags

RALEIGH — Three days after a Carolina Journal report on the plight of a 4-year-old preschooler and her lunch made national headlines, the identity of the person who determined that the youngster's homemade lunch was not nutritious remains unknown.
Of the several government agencies who have been named in the controversy — the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Division of Child Development and Early Education at the N.C. Department of Health and Human Services, Hoke County schools, and the FPG Child Development Institute at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill — none will admit that it was responsible for employing or contracting with the person who was inspecting preschoolers’ lunches at West Hoke Elementary School in late January.
In the initial story published Feb. 14, CJ Associate Editor Sara Burrows reported that a preschooler at West Hoke was notified by someone at the school that the lunch she brought from home — a turkey sandwich with cheese on white whole wheat bread, a banana, a bag of chips, and a container of apple juice — did not meet USDA guidelines for nutritious meals.

Just wear bite proof gloves when you put them in the juicer.
And Who The F#&k is she to be able to establish any sort of guidelines for anything! Does the FDA take their marching orders from her?
I believe there is a strong possibility that the “Agent” was indeed an SEIU union thug intent on intimidating parents who, by packing their child’s lunches, reduce the need for more dues paying SEIU union kitchen staff.
>LOL I was horrified to learn that my son would cut up the sub sandwiches that I had made and sold it to classmates.<
LOL! What an enterprising young man! Love it.
Open-and-shut case! :-)
She is enabled by the fact she is the busy little Igor to her husband's Frankenstein.
As I posted earlier.....Michelle has now assumed the reins of substantial power of her own in her "healthy eating" crusade. She's obviously enjoying the thrill of this control. (Remember, the school involved is worried about losing "points" for federal funds reimbursement if its lunch nutritional program isn't up to Michelle's snuff.
It appears the First Looty now has at her disposal a substantial number of bureaucratic minions and flying monkeys to carry forward her diktats across the fruited plain....thanks to the backing of her husband.
I hope this answers your question. The FDA is merely (and happily) taking its marching orders from this power-hungry Fasc%#@ist couple.

The school is slipping and sliding around this incident, also.

I suspect you are right! You know, I don't need a job, but I would offer to work for free if the govt were hiring someone to look into waste, skimming and fraud in govt-funded program like that. But I don't think they WANT to look into it.
“Nugget pimping.” Gotta remember that one. Gawd, I love English.
