Washington Examiner | 10/13/14 | Paul Bedard

As school children continue to protest Michelle Obama’s push for healthier lunches by dumping their full trays into garbage bins, the nation’s school boards are joining in to demand that the Obama administration let them off the hook of serving the costly and tasteless meals. Armed with a national poll for National School Lunch Week, the National School Boards Association on Monday demanded that Washington address the “onerous requirements for federal school meal programs

No one eats that crap. Students head for burgers and fries in their cars. Poor kids are trapped. It is discrimination!! Stop this now!! Fat is good — starving is real bad.

Michelle Obamas name is mud in schools out here. Students are keenly aware she is responsible for pushing this filth on them.

What a flustercluck. Food that kids don’t want, at prices we we can’t afford. All in the name of providing a solution to a problem (childhood obesity) likely not caused by school lunch programs in the first place.

Maybe Obama can order a C-130 to drop some Humanitarian Daily Rations for these kids. I heard the barley stew one isn’t half bad...

She has NO authority to do anything at all, really.

I really liked the “mashed” potatoes scooped out by the lunchroom lady in the ice cream scoop, and the brown “gravy” with it decades ago. The roast beef slice wasnt bad either. And, decent fish on Fridays. Also, the bread “pudding” served up too.
In total, hardly anyone threw away anything except the empty milk cartons. Oh yeah, an exception was the mystery meat. Never knew what that was.

If they send it out as “wet garbage” the hogs will eat better.

Michelle Obama was not elected to do anything. Her lunch program is poorly thought out, extremely wasteful, and unpopular. Lest you think that they harass only school kids, our city declined funds for senior citizen’s food because the new regulations made it cheaper to reject the federal money.

My kid’s a senior now. I’ve been making his school lunch for almost 12 years. It’s been worth every early morning.

Moochelle has had nothing to do with what my son eats for lunch.

So school kids are standing up to Mrs. Hussein. Who ever would have guessed such a thing would happen? Way to go, kids!

Perhaps that’s good.

The sooner they look like death camp survivors, the sooner Michelle may lose interest.

The irony is that nobody gives a damn about the idiotic regulations.

The real reason these schools are starting to reject the Federal lunch dollars is that they're now losing money on the deal. A school district needs a certain number of students paying the full freight in the lunch program in order to make it work. If that wookie Michelle Obama insists on feeding crap to school kids, then the ones in the free lunch program don't have anything to complain about but the "discretionary customers" (the families paying the full cost) are walking away.

Your tax dollars are wasted thanks to the incompetent FLOTUS. Why should anyone listen to an ex-lawyer who knows nothing about diet or nutrition? This woman can't even get her enormous booty call under control. Her booty call is still the width of the U.S. Standard Rail Gage of 4 feet, 8.5 inches -- two horses' butts wide.
