While your kids at school get the slop that Michelle Obama dictates that they do, her kids get something, um, different.
At their exclusive private school, the Obama daughters get food far better than youd get at home, or in most restaurants.
Michelle Obama has made childhood obesity her pet issue, much like Nancy Reagan did with drugs or Laura Bush did with literacy. Fair enough.
However, the first ladys nutritional strictures have left school lunches a little, um, not lunch-like.
It may lead you to wonder what Michelles kids are getting.
Well, wonder no further! We have what Sasha and Malia are getting at the Sidwell Friends School in Washington, D.C. (H/T Mad World News).

Well, it certainly pays well for one not to have to conform to those “other” school lunch rules.
And there you have the correct answer.
How true! My brother and I grew up on baloney and cheese sandwiches as well...imagine if the Wookie found out kids actually ate baloney and cheese sandwiches!!
The way I figure it, Michelle Obama is the First Dependopotamus —she thinks she is some sort of co-president because she’s married to the president.
Thinks she can make laws and regulations.
No.
That said, though, the kids are in private school. Whatever the school decides to do for lunch is up to them. I think the kids should stay at their school for security reasons.
Finally ... DD says she has gained more weight (like, 8 pounds, the horror ...) on school lunches than she has from working at McDonald’s.
I couldnt eat their lunch, my tastes in food are more pedestrian.
I’m startin’ to think the rich have it better than the rest of us.
The “monarchy” plate vs the “proletariat” plate.
Our grandkids come home from school and complain about the inedible “stuff” they have for school lunches...on a daily basis.
Their parents a “fed up” (pardon the pun), and have started packing their lunch.
Let’s face it rank and position always had it’s privileges.
There’s so much to hate about these frikkin’ people it’s amazing.
In High School I spent my 2 dollars per day on cigarettes. I was starving every day by dinner time. I never did tell my mom I spent my lunch money on smokes. Slowing down to eat was an inconvenience when I was younger...
Cold turkey sandwich for me every day. I did splurge on some Lays Classic chips, though.
lol........
Well, there you go.
Do for yourself, and you don't need to worry about what Uncle Sugar is, or isn't, doing for you.
The school I attended for my first 8 years had no cafeteria. EVERYbody brought his or her own lunch, EVERYday. Imagine!
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. Metmom holds both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. I am filling in temporarily; Metmom will return soon! Please freepmail if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
I agree.
How much does this food policy affect students who pay for their own lunches? Or who bring their own lunches? Just wondering. School lunches never were great. When I was a child, my mother packed a lunch for me every day. In high school, I paid for my own lunches.
I removed my firstborn from preschool and started homeschooling because of food. I was sending him to preschool with healthy snacks that I’d packed, but the teachers were giving him and all the other children donuts and cookies and sugary drinks paid for by the government, just because it was too much trouble to let the children get their lunchboxes from their bookbags. It was easier for the teachers to hand out food.
