“Everybody is feeling a little bit stretched and stressed by what they’re facing,” she said, citing an onslaught of policy memos and regulations.

They voted for it.

Eating ‘right’ seems to have little correlation to longevity or health.

Worrying about it all the time does make one sick.

At stake is the health of millions of kids, an $11 billion school lunch program dominated by big food companies that want to build brand loyalty early, and even the legacy of the first lady — who has made combating the childhood obesity epidemic her primary cause.

Lots of false choices in that paragraph...

...school lunch program dominated by big food companies that want to build brand loyalty...

If that isn't some commie lib, bull**** drivel, I don't know what is. Those kids don't have a clue which "BIG" (OMG!) food companies supply the food they're eating. How the hell would they know which "BIG" (OMG!) food company to be "loyal" to! Lord help us. We're working with some hardcore morons here! Liberals really need to cut down on the "recreational drugs". Especially the liberal "teachers" and politicians.

“ominated by big food companies that want to build brand loyalty early”

Things sure have changed. When I went to grade school we never had school lunches. Towards the end they had hot dogs on Wednesday that we brought money to pay for. I never saw a brand on anything other than the milk which was a local dairy.

If Moo doesn’t show up, the conference will be significantly less ugly!

As a nutrition professional in the thick of this in Boston I can tell you it has gotten ugly. I am in a position where I can not share my opinion because there is truly fear about saying the wrong thing to the wrong person and affecting your job. I am literally afraid to say any more about it, even on here. That is how crazy this has all become...

Breaking news: people don’t like to be told what to do.
