he Trump administration on Friday announced plans to roll back school lunch standards on vegetables and fruits originally promoted by Michelle Obama, unveiling the proposal on the former first lady's birthday.
The new standards will allow schools more flexibility "because they know their children best," the Agriculture Department said in a press release.
Happy Birthday MichelleO

I don't know who started the lunch program, but pushing standards lower for feeding children can't be good.

“Under the new rules, schools would be allowed to reduce the number of fruits and vegetables required at each meal. The latest change follows a 2019 rollback of restrictions on milk and sodium content in school lunches.
Critics said the change will pave the way for greasier, more unhealthy foods such as pizza, french fries and burgers.”

What exactly were the standards for school lunches that Michelle Obama was a part of?
Honestly, I don't remember and at the time, my two kid's were either in college already or high school with the youngest attending an online public school (and thus eating yummy, homemade lunches here with me at home).
Wasn't a part of these standards to include no more vending machines filled with junk?

It’s just ridiculous that so many kids are being fed crap
And their moms are happy that they will skip fruits and vegetables in favor of chicken nuggets and donuts. Michelle actually wanted kids to eat heathy lunches but because it was Her idea, they rejected it.
Republicans have no clue about nutrition. Their kids have bellies - just like their dads who have beer bellies!
They’re all stumbling around malls with sugary drinks and snacks , shopping and gaining weight as a family activity.
And you would know they're all Republicans..........HOW, Libby?GMa4all wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 9:09 pmYepFrancee89 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 5:29 pm “Under the new rules, schools would be allowed to reduce the number of fruits and vegetables required at each meal.

Be cautious as you're just this close to treading once again into something you've claimed you don't do which is to make fun of weight issues of others.
Every complaint about school lunches at CM and here and Online is mainly a slam at Michelle Obama.AZLizardLady wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 9:15 pmAnd you would know they're all Republicans..........HOW, Libby?GMa4all wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 9:09 pmYepFrancee89 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 5:29 pm “Under the new rules, schools would be allowed to reduce the number of fruits and vegetables required at each meal.

The complaint was clearly prejudiced against her.
And it’s a Crime to feed kids sugary greasy fatty salty foods and allowing them ( and the rest of the family ) to become unhealthy as a result of obesity.
Obesity is okay with you?

Most kids will not eat the healthy stuff unfortunately so most of the healthy lunch gets thrown out anyway. Kids were throwing Obama school lunches in the trash. What nutritional value does thrown away food have? Better to serve some pizza or chicken nuggets that get eaten verses fruits and vegetables getting thrown in the trash.
Wouldn't it be a "slam" against Michelle Obama given that the school lunch program was HER pet project?GMa4all wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 9:22 pmEvery complaint about school lunches at CM and here and Online is mainly a slam at Michelle Obama.AZLizardLady wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 9:15 pmAnd you would know they're all Republicans..........HOW, Libby?GMa4all wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 9:09 pm

How would it have been "prejudiced?"
Again, you didn't answer my question. How do you know that the only ones feeding their children unhealthy food and waltzing around with "beer bellies" are Republicans only?
As for your last little tidbit, do you EVER self-edit what rolls out of your brain before you write it down? Do you have any remote idea just how damn ridiculous you often come across as when you start becoming unhinged because.....::::grasping the pearls::::....someone has the audacity to dispute what you have to say or more, HOW you're saying it?
