Remember when First Lady Michelle Obama declared that steak and arugula were her favorite foods – and her vow to swear off French fries? Well, now, the nation’s top advocate for healthful eating says pizza and fries are her favorites.

When Mrs. Obama was asked to declare her favorite food yesterday during a question and answer session with children at the White House, she boldly touted the wonders of pizza and fries:

CHILD: “And my favorite -- my question is, what’s your favorite food?”

MRS. OBAMA: “Favorite what?”

CHILD: “Your favorite food.”

MRS. OBAMA: “Favorite food -- hands down, pizza. Pizza! (Laughter.) Don’t you all agree?”

CHILDREN: “Yes!”

MRS. OBAMA: “Pizza is the ultimate food, because it can be a junk food, it can be healthy. Like, almost every Friday I’ll eat, like, a veggie pizza on wheat. Now, that may not be something you like, but I like it. You can have dessert pizza. You can do anything with pizza. It’s a very versatile, universally loved food. And I like French fries.”

Tell that to the schoolkids using the #THANKSMICHELLEOBAMA hashtag to protest the distasteful meals inflicted on them by the First Lady’s menu mandates, or the school lunch programs suffering plummeting participation and bleeding red ink. Back in her first term in the White House, Mrs. Obama touted steak and arugula as her favorite foods. And, more recently, she declared she was “making a vow” to swear off French fries. It appears there has, indeed, been “change” at the White House.

Maybe, her husband has been a (bad? good?) influence on her over the years. Pres. Obama loves pizza so much, he’s even had his favorite pizza-maker flown 860 miles to the White House to make some for him. He’s even given a plug for the St. Louis pizza shop during his weekly video

Wow, that’s one big booty for him to grab.

Does she carry any around in her purse?

That's a true pizza lover, I tell you!

To hell with the government food police.

The Moose orders her pizza with three racks of ribs on top and extra lard.

I thought the Obamas loved baked armadillo. They think it is possum on the half-shell.

It shows.

That could apply to almost every leftist there is-from the enviro-nazis who fly around in large jets while demanding that the rest of us walk or ride bikes, to lobbying until they forced perfectly good light bulbs out of the market while their homes use the amount of energy of Lichtenstein, to pools, fountains, and other non-necessary uses of water while forcing others to watch their crops die while they themselves smugly preen, to people like that idiot Bono carrying on about taxes while they become tax exiles or use every available loophole known to their high-priced lawyers to avoid paying them. I wouldn't care what they did in any of these cases if it wasn't for their infuriating hypocrisy.

The rear-view picture of her looking like a hulking mannish dowdy frump, with terrible posture, next to the two French ladies going up the steps with their slim graceful physiques and simple but chic dresses, is a memorable one to me.

Someone needs to tell her that soy is fattening... and I’m a vegan and know of what I speak which is why I stopped eating soy.
