Next Year’s Plan: All foods must be pureed before serving. Feel free to use Gerber Brand pureed and blended meals.
We loved Gerber as babies, and we need Gerber while growing up. Please bring own box of nappies in the appropriate size.

The same guidelines said no juice either.

Where does the federal government get this authority??

Come on, they have to keep promoting the low-fat diet, otherwise sheeple might stay healthy.

I suspect what the USDA is talking about is deep fat frying, not pan frying. Not exactly healthy and also is a significant fire hazard.

[Amendment10]

”… which qualify for federal funding."

As mentioned in related threads, the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power regulate, tax and spend for any issue concerning intrastate public schools.

And even if the states had delegated such power to the feds, the Founding States had made the first numbered clauses in the Constitution, Sections 1-3 of Article I, to clarify that all federal legislative powers are vested in the elected members of Congress, not in the executive or judicial branches, or in non-elected federal bureaucrats like those running the Dept. of Agriculture.

And by unconstitutionally delegating federal legislative / regulatory powers to federal agencies like the Dept. of Agriculture, corrupt Congress is wrongly protecting powers that it doesn’t even have from the wrath of the voters in blatant defiance of Sections 1-3 mentioned above.

What a mess! 8^P

I say every place should offer either the White House menu or the Sidwell Friends menu, every day.

Then let them try to bitch about what kids are eating.

[NonValueAdded]

What Constitutional authority grants them the right to even address this?

[cherry]

French fries are about the only thing little kids will eat sometimes...

Fresh out of college I was made the assistant director of a day care center. No experience, no kids, nothing. But I wasn't stupid and learned as I went along. I liked kids! And knew it was only temporary. Anyway, besides the odd choice of hiring me, this was known as an “upscale” daycare. It used to bother me, though, that kids would get dropped off as I opened the door at 6:00 am and not picked up until almost 7pm. No family time! So I tried to make it as homey as possible, and yes we fried eggs for breakfast, made cookies, had the occasional chicken tender but we were a small school (up to k and private) so I made a menu that was overall healthy and what kids would eat. It's not rocket science! We had people changing to our daycare/school for the food! I wasn't trained, I just knew how to eat and stayed within budget!

[abclily]

This is just the beginning. The government is controlling the menu. Next the government will restrict food just like Stalin did to starve his political enemies.
