(CNSNews.com) - First lady Michelle Obama traveled to Milan last week as part of the ‘Let’s Move!’ Program to promote a “global dialogue about the future of our food system,” according to the LetsMove.gov blog.

Mrs. Obama led the Presidential Delegation to the Milan Expo 2015 with the theme “Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life,” where she shared the “successes of Let’s Move! and the efforts happening in the United States to support healthier lifestyles” and “learned from other countries’ leaders about how they are addressing the issue of childhood obesity and raising healthier families.”

“That’s why it’s so important for us all to be here at this Expo, sharing these ideas with the world, learning from each other, celebrating the advancements that we’ve made, but also not being complacent,” said the first lady.

The trip included a visit to the James Beard American Restaurant, located in the heart of central Milan atop the landmark Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. The restaurant “provides a showcase for great chefs, products, ingredients, beverages, and other American delights,” stated the blog.

Her stupidity in a way is a blessing.

Imagine the damage she could cause if she tried to mess with anything more important than ruining kids lunches

I'm sure everything she ordered was on the "Healthy Option" menu.

The Worst Lady, the Moocher, is at it again, embarrassing her self, this country and humanity. What a affirmative-action life she lives.. What a complete waste.

You'll be moving by Jan 2017 at the latest. Sooner if you like.

Trying to separate an Italian from his pasta can lead to open warfare. I'm on the Italian's side.

I hope, out of respect for diplomatic protocol, that this is one of the fifteen towns named Milan in the United States.

I’d like to see her tell the Milanese they have to give up risotto and osso bucco in favor of steamed sweet potato and bean burgers.

Mmmm....*osso bucco*...

BS - just another excuse for a taxpayer funded vacation.

And yes - she took her mother and her daughters on this "working vacation" - http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/100000-a-day-for-michelle-os-italy-england-trip/article/2566465

“global dialogue about the future of our food system,”

Sounds like treason to me.

I agree..I wish they would move their malignant, America-hating, racist selves out of the White House.
