My school culture in the 1950s was peanut butter sandwiches and potato chips.

Why can’t Moochelle just STFU and let the local school districts plan their damned school meals?????

If you live in a predominately black district you will get black food, you live in a predominately polish district you get predominately polish cuisine.

sounds like the “problem” would work itself out if FED-GOV just got the FSCK out of the way!

Gee, maybe the black neighborhood schools should serve “soul food” for all meals to be culturally inclusive to the community, then after all the student die of cholesterol poisoning and heart attack at leash moochelle can pat herself on her fat backside for being culturally inclusive, right?

Or maybe just TRUST the LOCAL DISTRICTS to decide on their own.....

Nope... pro-regressives only trust top down power....

Can’t wait until they have North Korean Lunch Day.

They will give you a glass of water and tell you you should be thankful for that. And if you’re not, you could be shot.

We never had food fights the day we had tater totes. I wonder if these meals are causing more food fights?

"Our goal at USDA is to ensure children have access to nutritious food that nourishes their growing bodies -- all while embracing diverse cultural customs and cuisines. I’m confident that through cultural inclusion and nutritious choices, schools across America will pave the way for a healthier next generation," Wilson concluded.

This sounds like it came through a robot-generated feel good machine. And it says nothing.

This is probably the way to get halal food in the schools to accommodate the Muslims.

After high school I never saw succotash again.
I forget exactly but it was two vegetables I never ate, together.
Now there will be even more meals the kids will refuse to eat.

When schools open next week all of the robot generated feel good machines should be pre-set to give bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwiches and ham sandwiches to all the Jihadist mooslim kids.

“Declining participation”?

In SoCal we feed half of Mexico with that program.

Thank you for referencing that article Tolerance Sucks Rocks. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

… government-mandated nutrition standards ...

FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

The states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for intrastate school nutrition purposes.

And speaking of the USDA, with the exception of food where buyer and seller are domiciled in different states or different countries, the Supreme Court has clarified that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate intrastate agricultural production.

”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited. None to regulate agricultural production is given, and therefore legislation by Congress for that purpose is forbidden [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.

In fact, the post-17th Amendment ratification Senate should have protected the states, as the Founding States had intended for the Senate to do, by killing the bill which led to the establishment of the unconstitutional Healthy Hunger-Free Kids act of 2010 which was signed by lawless Obama. So once again the corrupt feds are rescuing the states with money that they stole from the states in the form of unconstitutional taxes, complements of the corrupt Senate.

Also note that the Senate wrongly ignored its Article V requirement to lead Congress to petition the states for an amendment to the Constitution which would have granted Congress the specific power to address intrastate school nutritional issues.

The ill-conceived 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and Constitution-ignoring senators along with it.

Has anyone noticed that Pei Wei no longer serves pork egg rolls? The new chicken egg rolls aren’t near as good.......I wonder if they came under pressure to get rid of all pork on their menu.
