Michelle Obama has made her strongest political intervention since leaving the White House, stating bluntly at a health conference: Think about why someone is OK with your kids eating crap.
One of the former first ladys signature legacies was an effort to reduce childhood obesity. Earlier this month, Donald Trumps administration froze regulations that would cut sodium and increase whole grains served in school meals.

The 53-year-old demanded: And why is that a partisan issue? Why would that be political? What is going on? You know, now thats up to moms. Moms, think about this. I dont care what state you live in. Take me out of the equation. Like me, dont like me, but think about why someone is OK with your kids eating crap. Why would you celebrate that? Why would you sit idly and be OK with that?
Because heres the secret: if somebody is doing that, they dont care about your kid, and we need to demand everyone to care deeply about kids. Thats all we have. So we should be driving this and every elected official on this planet should understand: dont play with our children. Dont do it.

Evidently riled, Obama continued: You shouldnt know what youre eating. Think about that. Stop there, think about that. You shouldnt know what youre eating. Youre OK with that? Do you know people who are OK with that? I mean, I just find myself thinking, this isnt my fight, you know, this is where youve got to look yourself in the eye.
We need to look our neighbours in the eye and kind of go: What is going on? Because this just isnt that complicated, you know. Just tell me whats in my food. Why is that a problem?

Time for all of the Obamas to butt out.

Looks like all those fruits and veggies might not be good for your hair.
We’re not going to feed those kids that slop you made the schools serve them.
Shut up you America-hating female dog.
I know a woman who some years ago was enrolling her daughters into middle school and was asked if she wanted to join the low-income free lunch program, to which my friend replied, if I couldn’t afford to feed them, I wouldn’t have had them.
Has “The Mooch” played the race card yet?
Lard-ass has no credibility on the subject of reducing obesity
“Hope he tears up her vegetable garden.”
Lol, he really should. Then he could replace is with cows and say it is needed ‘crop rotation’ after 8 years.
Maybe what my kids eat is of no concern to some corrupt fat cow.
Meanwhile, Trump, who’s 70 years old, loves his KFC, Big Macs, and Diet Coke, and physicians reported he’s in perfect health.
This cow Michelle needs to take her fat ass, meet up with Hillary and her fat ass, and take a girls’ vacation to some remote island.
When do those two not play the race card?
If your children won’t eat it then it’s not nutrition.
Bmk...empress tofu...lol...
How dare Trump not force children to eat Approved Food!
please shut up forever, Michelle Obama.
Cows letting off methane gas or whatever they let off...
He could also set up a slaughterhouse for his steaks!
