I also wonder if Michelles two girls are subjected to such food torture at their private school. Hummm, I would like to see the lunch menu. Being from Louisiana we eat a lot of Jambalaya - everyone has their own recipe and it is usually delicious - but hardly the first choice of young kids. I can’t imagine what the school’s Jambalaya tasted like taking out the Louisiana twist - uck.
Jumbalaya and Thai food are acquired tastes. That would be like a kid from the Bronx being served grits and fried green tomatoes.
I had the jambalaya Thursday before we went on vacation. It was good! A little too spicy for my tastes, but I ate it all. Folks, I know it’s Obama and I know Malkin is a great writer, but I’m actually working at LAUSD and I am telling you, this is pretty good food. Better than what they used to serve. We didn’t even know it was part of some program, no one told us teachers anything about it. We just started noticing that the food was getting better. I’m sorry to see everyone bashing it because 1) It’s from Michelle Obama, so it must be bad, and 2) Kids prefer junk food. (Well duh, really??)
