Don’t tell me it’s another one of Moo-chelle Obama’s “Let’s MOO” program.
Does the money go to the Congressional Brothels,
ACORN, or just the DNC?
Now, now. You're obviously a neanderthal who doesn't know that true freedom consists only of the right to use the "f-word" and to be homosexual. [/sarcasm]
This is literally the issue of whether the federal government can force a person to buy broccoli.
Unbelievable.
My kids love veggies. They couldn’t possibly serve as many veggies as my kids would be happy to eat. But they will barf onto Michelle Obama’s fat lap anything she tries to shove down their throats against their will.
I really need to talk to my husband about homeschooling. I’ve wanted to do it forever
Wouldnt this be like Obama care where they are requiring you to purchase something?
One of the Supremes while reviewing Obamacare mentioned us being forced to buy brocolli....When wull people stand up...
They demand fruits and vegetables, while the cafeteria still serves the pink slime.

“If a student refuses to take the fruit or vegetable, the cafeteria employees will have to charge an a la carte fee, which typically is higher because the lunch will not be reimbursable under federal guidelines.”
What happens if the kid brings an apple or an orange from home?
And underweight kids will have to buy french fries, pizza, and ice cream, right?
I looked eagerly for the “semi-satire” website link for this post, but alas, there wasn’t one!
Sad to say, I live in Milford and am compelled to pay for this madness.
Wonder how brown baggers are affected?
He'll be double-fined for failing to contribute to government coffers.
Ping (and puke!)

Pig farmers will be lining up to place scrap containers in the schools... free haul away!
When this was being passed into law, did anyone stand up in Congress (or outside, for that matter) and say that this is not the govt’s business?
The obligatory menu. It starts in public school, but it won’t end there.
We homeschool. Our sons get to eat whatever, whenever. It’s great.
We’ll walk with you through the beginning if you want to home educate your children. :)
