I would also follow you into battle for a meatloaf sandwich, LOL!
Public schools are bad for the brain.
Agree. Its none of their business. And this story about non-healthy parent packed lunches is pure propaganda to prop up Mrs. Obama’s lunch program.
They are probably getting some of the same stuff they eat when they eat at home. Back in the sixties when I was in school, we had good school lunches that kids actually would eat. They also resembled the good meals we got at home. Lunches from home were good too. All of this amazingly without government intervention. The world has changed a lot since then, so I think the answer to today’s problem is for the government to choose and supply three meals a day for all households with school-aged children.
Say, that is troubling. Perhaps we should pass on all of our childrens’ nutritional responsibilities to the State.
No kidding, The Great Mother indeed. So she thinks! How dare she!!!
People who make this crap up need to be shunned by society and sent packing
to live under a bridge somewhere far away from populations.
“Healthy” meals in the trash don’t help anybody. Moochelle’s lunch crusade is classic over reach. It is no business of the federal government what kids eat.
U got that right.
While we ate breakfast, my Mom stood at the kitchen counter and packed us a home-made lunch containing a) one sandwich of whole wheat bread, bologna, cheese, lettuce or peanut butter b) one apple c)and one home made oatmeal cookie. Also a thermos of milk. All in a lunch pail or paper bag.
Thank you, Mom.
How is it that parents of young children are still allowed to do their own grocery shopping? They should have to obtain approved food packages from the central distribution center. Otherwise they may conclude they are capable of deciding what is best for their own child. Heresy!
Our government wouldn’t have any reason for not wanting our brains to grow and develop, would they?
Funny thing. Our local school district is serving “free” breakfasts and lunches this year via a federal grant. If a child brings her lunch from home and wants school milk to go with it, she has to pay $.50 for the milk that comes free with a tray of school food. I suggested on a school Facebook page that the children who want milk but not the food put their lunches down at their table and then go through the lunch line and take the tray and milk. Then eat the lunch from home and return the tray of food to the cafeteria at the end of lunch. Someone removed the post. Lol. Typical government stupidity in action. I am sure it is due to federal rules that the school must charge for the milk.
“For an active kid, high fat dairy is preferable.”
Kids aren’t allowed to be active. The boys are drugged so they’ll act like girls and just sit quietly.
I wonder if they've done any studies on why student test scores have dropped, literacy has dropped, math skills have dropped...
Please don’t tell Moochelle, but MY Mom also let us drink coffee and cream with our breakfast while she packed our lunches!
If it was good enough for her as a child, it was good enough for us. The horror! The horror! *SMIRK*
There is nothing wrong with peanut butter and jelly sandwiches made with Wonder Bread. A thermos of milk and some walnut cookies made with oatmeal was everything you needed.
It is just sad and pathetic that the a-hole liberals have politicized school lunches. I pray for the day that all liberals die.

You are right-—my kids loved them. I made 10 a day and those “kids” are now in their forties and fifties-—and quite healthy.
