Eat it! Eat it!
Open up your mouth and feed it ...

No doubt the beaucoup bucks spent to document this racist perception of salad bars needs additional funding and multiple federal programs to rectify this crisis situation lest our civilization fall into further bigoted turmoil.

Some people are perpetually pissed.It’s a lifestyle for them.

with some students benefiting more than others

That is a sorry a$$ conclusion. Some students may have actually had veggies at home and know what they are and that they are good for you.

Or, is that more "everyone but black priviledge"?

What about the Swimming Gap, where so many have drowned?

What about the Mine Shaft Gap?

That’s culturally insensitive to post a pic of a white guy ripping off a very successful black, but overly weird dude around whom you would not let any male children come within a mile of...

[Mr. Blond]

Schools have salad bars now?

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

DANG!

[DUMBGRUNT]

Mr. President, we must not allow a mineshaft gap!

They really didn't have to spend a nickle to come to this conclusion. No "study" was required.

Simply walk into any "Souper Salad" restaurant. My wife likes to go there when we're nearby. About all there is to the place is a long buffet salad bar.

Never, and I mean not a single time, in the years we've been there have I seen a black person. It's become something of a joke for us now. "Will there be a black person in Souper Salad?"

So... black people don't like salad. I haven't noticed the sky falling, but it's dark outside...

[dfwgator]

You mean you never noticed the “Whites Only” signs outside of “Souper Salad”?

[TontoKowalski]

LOL actually there might be!

Well, there might as well be... I haven't noticed any other ethnic groups. I'll keep an eye open for Hispanics and Asians.

I heard that there was a huge mess to clean up on the national mall, after Obama’s inauguration. Huge crowds came to see his swearing in, and they left behind lots of evidence they had been there.

I don’t care what Mooch does in the schools, eating habits won’t change at home.

Liberals are so arrogant to think they can cure poverty with their stupid ideas. When their stupid ideas create more problems the stupid liberals come up with more stupid ideas.

Black families used to eat greens such as collards and mustard cooked with bacon or salt pork and served with vinegar.

Those greens are actually a much more nutrient dense vegetable than is iceberg lettuce with some blue cheese or ranch dressing, cheese, bacon bits and croutons. A lot of kids do not like tomatoes or mushrooms so probably they do not add those at the salad bar.

But serving greens would probably be considered racist, even though all races could benefit from it.

[TontoKowalski]

I am a child of the Deep South, and what is now called "soul food" was known to us as "food."

I still love turnip greens, and yes, greens are very nutrient rich. Vegetables were a mainstay at our meals, not because our parents were particularly concerned with nutrition, but because we grew them ourselves and our parents were DEFINITELY budget-minded.

I'm meandering, but your point about vegetables =/= salad is valid.

Do the salad bars have watermelon?
