School kids are blaming Michelle Obama for their “gross” school lunches
Washington Post ^ | November 24, 2014 | By Roberto A. Ferdman

School kids around the country are tweeting rather unfortunate pictures of the meals they're being served at lunchtime, and thanking first lady and healthy school food advocate Michelle Obama for their bowls of mush and mystery proteins.

The tweets, which have carried the not-so-subtle #ThanksMichelleObama hashtag, were being sent out at a rate of 40 per minute late last week, but started to gain momentum some 10 days back and are still continuing to be posted as of this morning.

"We've seen the photos being tweeted," said Sam Kass, executive director of Let's Move! and senior policy advisor for Nutrition."But we don't dictate the food that schools serve—school districts do.

Within 5 years, the MSM will have spum Mrs. Obola into a conservative Republican so that we get the blame for her tyranny...

Under Mrs. Obola’s regime, lunches brought from home are screened for “compliance” with her dictates.

BTW, HOW DOES SHE HAVE THIS AUTHORITY?!?!!!

funny, when they cite Michelle O’s influence they have no problem pimping her role over school lunches. Once again the regime is Grubering

Tell those racist ankle-biters if they don't like Michelle's school lunch policies to get out there and win an election.

How dare they question our Royalty! Ask any Leftist. Moochelle is married to the Smartest Guy in the World, and as such must be the Smartest Woman in the World. She knows everything about all that nutritioning stuff.

I've determined that the reason teachers and administrators would actually grovel at the feet of our current Clara Petacci is that they are even more slackwitted than she is.

There's nothing contrarian about it ... you're absolutely right.

I have no sympathy for anyone who expects the taxpayer to feed them, then turns around and complains about what is given to them. What a bunch of misfits and losers we've become.

LOL found what I thought was an Olive Garden shopping bag sitting in a planter. It was full of snacks. Figured a parent would claim it in the morn. They didn’t.

Looked closer and it was a Whole Foods shopping bag and it was full of snacks the Mooch would love. Kelp granola ... You get the drift. Probably another mom was the one to “forget” it.

Who knee Michelle was a soccer mom!

I retired from teaching in June, but at the school I was in, there were 3 categories for lunch.

Free Lunch

Reduced Lunch

Full Price Lunch.

To be honest with you most of the 30 students in my homeroom brought their lunches.

The major problem that the kids told me who were in high school, was that they restricted the calorie count to 850 cal.

Judging by the disgusting photos at the article, it seems that someone is skimming off a hell of a lot of tax money meant to buy edible food.

I am suspicious that some purple people eaters (SEIU), and publik skool nazis at the top of the gov’t free money pile, are taking the money, and spending as little as possible on these non-meals. If so, they are keeping a lot of it for their greedy selves, and spending the rest to keep the demonrats in office so they may continue their decades long dream of total destruction of America.

I see that some of that “food” is even rotten(the canned pears). One of the oranges is green, not ripened.

Someone MO and BO know and love, is taking that money. Guberment union thugs are suspect number one. Or perhaps Marie Antoinette herself is pocketing it for future world vacations after we drag her ass out of the white hut.

Not that I’m bitter about the dictator and his fat wife or anything.

Unlikely. Mooch will be running for Senate in Illinois.

More like Warren/Cory Booker or Warren/DeVal Patrick

how about stop living off the taxpayers and bring your own meals!

They can't just bring their own meals,they are subject to inspection and approval.

Parents better figure out soon that the free baby sitting service known as public schools are really just Communist Propaganda Reeducation Camps.

It’s not meat - the blob is refried beans. See the tortilla?
