Sailors are blaming First Lady Michelle Obama after a report revealed that the Navy is preparing a full ban on fried food.
Vocativ reports:
The First Lady doesnt set nutrition policy for the nations fleets. But that hasnt stopped more than two dozen criticsmany of them current and former Navy personnelfrom flooding a Navy Times Facebook thread to blame FLOTUS, who has made combating obesity and promoting healthy eating her signature issues.
Comments included, Is Michelle Obama now playing big sister to the military hotline? and First the kids, now the troops.
Seriously. Sounds like MICHELLE OBAMA strikes again, a former Navy Intelligence Specialists opined.
The Navy Times reported that the Navy would soon stop frying chicken, French fries, and shrimp, and instead bake them in state-of-the-art ovens.
Whole milk will be replaced by skim and soy; fruits and vegetables will be on prominent display, the report noted. The fast line will remain, but its offerings will be cut back.
And this is just the beginning.
The report also said the militarys Go for Green healthy eating campaign will become the standard for all mess halls, on land and at sea.
The Department of Defense has been touting its Go for Green healthy eating campaign for years, which gives red alerts for foods like bacon and apple pie. Limit intake warnings accompany deserts and fried foods through the program.
According to Vocativ, the fried food ban is set take effect in 2017.
So who’s responsible for the keywords, moreoldnews and searchworks?
Speak up you vandals. :-)
Whole milk will be replaced by skim and soy ...”
Un-fermented soy couldn’t be worse for you. Avoid it to the extent you can, which is difficult, as it’s in nearly everything. May as well go on Bruce Jenner’s hormone therapy regimen as to drink and eat that poison.
Thanks to our worst lady they have pulled the fryers out of the hospital where I work someone high up in the organization signed on to her healthy eating campaign for all of us wasn’t that nice.... Good thing there is a chik fil a in the parking lot!!!!
This will make it easier for the transvestites to fit into their dresses.
Life would hardly be worth living without fried eggs and bacon for breakfast.
I have friends pretty high up in the Navy and Army. They tell that they spend more time on making queers comfortable than they do training for battle.
Agreed, and those things are NOT bad for you at all.
Whole is milk is pretty mush as it came out of the cow, if you can get it “Pasteurize”....
Disclaimer: in Army Basic Training in 1969, we were fed about 4000+ calories a day or we would of probably dropped dead from all the exertion.
Sometimes fried food is just good for the soul.
Uh-oh! More comshaw coming!
Skim milk, soy?
Screw off. Imposing malnurishment is an enemy action.
Ironic that this paper is called the “Free Beacon” and the authoress feels she has to defend FLOATASS against internet comments, while seeming to endorse a ban on fried foods.
Nayvee’s bunch of fat asses anyways. Bout time they cut their displacement. Give the beaches a break.
No fried eggs?
No hamburgers?
I wouldn’t miss the fried rabbit, or the chicken fried steak that was two hamburger patties glued together with batter and fried.
