Podar Jumbo Kids is a preschool.
Good post.
LOL. They include yellow lentils, bananas, corn and pineapple in the orange category, but fail to include carrots.
BRILLIANT! LOL.
The formatting is screwed up. It's supposed to be color first, then list of foods.
By the way I never knew that mushrooms were blue??? At least not the kind we eat here. They're grey.
The government spending on public education doubled in the last six years, but they still fail to cair about feeding these children good food. What a sick joke!
Best to start over or correct it.
As it is it does not do the subject justice.
ROFL. Very funny. If only it were true. Somebody oughta send 50 pounds of beef bologna to Director Swati Popat just for making such a hilarious statement. LOL!
Interesting post. It reminds me of the Indian practice for seeking to eat all the colors of the rainbow daily to insure good health. That is a pretty good rule to thumb when you are seeking to balance nutrients. At least you tend to get in all the veggies in your diet. Except of course if you ate M&M or Skittles to get the colors.
Do they still make 'Chuckles'? ;-)
Vinegar, carrots, parsley, and garlic every day works for me.

Since when is it the government's job feed brats?
Mommy always let me wolf down vada pav at the roadside. I mean, where else would I wolf it down?
Mommy never made good old pav bhaji at home. She made it on the bus ride on her way home from work.
Daddy didn't like the idea of that much, but he did not have much say in the matter.
Personally, I just can't get enough Idli in my diet.
We have a whole generation of kids with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
Yes and a whole generation raised by baby sitters , parents who have no time to spend with them, and kids who receive no discipline at home or anywhere else.
I believe a lot of Attention Deficit Disorder is really a lack of discipline, and a failure of teachers to make the course interesting. Blaming it on food is a lot easier.
Well of course Mothers don't like it. Everyone knows that packing a Peppy is done not for dabba but for personal reasons. Besides your Peppy must be properly licensed.
And including a Frooti for dabba? That's beyond the pale. Dabbas only eat fried corn mush with maple syrup and a dollop of whipped cream, thank you very mush!
Ask them, you're asking the wrong person.
In case you didn't know,a lot of Hindus do eat beef. It is not much of a difficulty to get beef in India. The Vedas, a a sacred book of the Hindus, are full of descriptions of beef consumption after wars, victories, marriages, etc.
What you are aware of is stereotype. About a twentieth of Hindus object to consuming beef, though. And this practice started in the 1500s, when India was under Muslim rule.
You are correct. It is news to me to hear that "a lot" of practicing devout Hindus eat beef.
The devout Hindus who I am friends with here do not any meat at all.
I do know Hindus by birth and culture only who attribute their bovine laced diets to "becoming Westernized."
"and a failure of teachers to make the course interesting"
I think part of it is the curriculum being watered down to the lowest common denominator (so "nobody fails", thus no "damage to self esteem") to the point where many students are just plain bored silly. If a student is capable of learning faster, and wants to learn faster than the lowest common denominator, well, that just isn't fair! Those kids need to learn to "get with the program", and if it takes doping them up on Ritalin, etc., well that's what it takes.
While there are legit cases of ADHD (diagnosed by real doctors, not educrats and zampolits), it is nowhere near the level described in the media as far as real cases. Ritalin is to many times just automatically prescribed by the educrat (Why are educrats prescribing drugs? That's a whole 'nuther thread.) as a cop-out. To solve this particular "cause" of "ADHD" is not to throw more money into the education system. The solution to this "cause" is to require the teachers and educrats to DO THEIR JOBS! But then, the NEA won't allow that!
I'm the same way. In today's hectic world, it's just so much easier to pack a Peppy for dabba along with a Frooti.
