Mothers across the Country have told their kids to "eat your vegetables" for decades. Now a school system is helping. This seems to be something we all could get behind ... errr, right?

It takes a really special kind of person to like having government control every aspect of their life. They're called moonbats.

The schools already have nutritional guidelines...this just replaces animal protein with vegetable protein.

The problem with dummycrats is that they fail to realize that the kids simply will not eat the veggies.

But, like everything the dummcrats do, it sounds good.

Schools should not be giving food to students. It's parents jobs to feed the youngsters.

Maybe if publik schools focused on educating for a change we could stop the enstupidation of Amerika.

Government run schools have a right and have always had a right to make a decsion as to what is on the school's lunch menu. If parents object to this sensible change, they can still stuff their offspring with commerically raised, fatty and full of who knows what by-products meat when they are at home...or send them to school with their own choices.

We went home to eat at lunch time and returned...we also had P.E. to burn off excess calories.
