First Lady and school nutrition advocate Michelle Obama’s stringent lunch guidelines are limiting children to just one ketchup packet per meal.

A recent EagNews.com article profiled unhappy Idaho customers of the Obama administration’s revisions to the National School Lunch program, including a parent who called school lunches “not edible” and kids who have stopped eating lunch completely.

“Kids can’t take two ketchup packets [for burgers] because that would set them over on calories,” said a Burley, Idaho “district food-service secretary.”

... or else what?

Government threatens people’s livelihood to death over nothing.

And sheeples are not even revolting and taking it lying low.

Smh.

Just curious. What’s HFSC? Or do we really want to know? Thanks !

[BradyLS]

How is this possible? Whether you want two or three or even just one, they always give you ten!

Colonel Corbu the dog made out pretty well for a while- he used to get British dog biscuits fresh every week and his own motorcade.

One ketchup packet is crazy, but....

ketchup packets are really for stomping with your shoe on the playground. :>)

(And more than one is awesome!)

Yours sounds especially good and that's the kind of food I grew up on. My mom was a great cook. Those women deserve special honors in heaven. Maybe their hours weren't too long but it was hot and hard work. Only later was there air conditioning.

I do make wonderful apple pies but it's a lot of work so don't do it too often. They changed the Crisco taking out the trans fats and it doesn't taste any good, doesn't have much taste at all any more. I will work on chicken combinations like maybe use Bisquick for toppers with chicken, gravy and veggies. Fried potatoes, I make different kinds fresh grated hash browns and also leftover chopped. My mom used to stretch with some stale bread which got crispy. Ketchup or chili sauce on that. I have been making a lot of fresh puddings. Also rice pudding the long way in a slow oven. I tweaked it until I got it so yummy and creamy and leave the raisins and spices out now, is just unique is all I can say.

I am waiting to make a latke recipe I found on yt. I did make some yummy scalloped potatoes with Gruyere cheese, sliced with the 2mm blade for Cuisinart. All this is new to me. Anyway, as I peeled the potatoes and always cut out blemishes and eyes, they started turning dark, so got them in some cold water.

I read a tip on yt. Crush some Vitamin C (ascorbic acid). I had 3 all ready so I dissolved them in a cup of water, then as the potatoes were slicing, I poured the liquid through the skinny tube on top. I just shook the extra liquid off the potatoes when I layered them in a pan and they stayed beautiful, no discoloration at all.

I finally got a new ice cream maker, the kind you don't have to buy ice, 2 quart capacity. So I have been making coffee ice cream with Starbuck's roasted beans hit with a hammer, heated with milk, then let sit for an hour and strain out. The problem I've had is to use 1 qt half and half and 2 cups whip cream, I need twelve egg yolks. We never made it that way but it has the best consistency. So now I have 2 dozen egg whites frozen lol. Have to make an angel food cake in an oversized tube pan I guess or throw them out.

Thanks for sharing.

HFCS is high fructose corn syrup (oops...I switched the “C” and the “S”...sorry)

[onedoug]

Eff these goddamned islamists! Pack a lunch for your kids whether the school likes it or not.

High fructose corn syrup

Remember the mnemonic about how to pronounce her name?

[kalee]

Probably turkey bacon

[faithhopecharity]

Oh. I see. That fructose seems to get into a lot of foods, or former foods?

[piasa]

I don't know where you've been shopping but I read the label of this here shop-n-save no-brand cheapo catsup and it says tomato paste, vinegar, corn syrup and onion powder. No dye, and nothing wrong with vinegar at all though you cam omit the corn syrup. In older times the labels would say sugar rather than corn syrup, if they had any sweetener.

Problem is, the new rage seems to be to ban kids from bringing their own lunches.

[piasa]

It’s probably turkey bacon.

[cyn]

Heh. Yeah, that fits.

Let’s MOOOOOOOOVE.
