Oh man that local news story looks totally legit.  And that is totally 100% on Michelle Obama and not the local school board that sets the lunch budget.

I really could not care less about any news story about school lunch, kid getting suspended for haircut, prayer before a football game in Texas or something, some high school history AP ciriculum, common core math, etc.

Nevermind, I read that all wrong, the article is more clear.

Vague dax strikes again

School Boards set Federal School lunch standards?   Fascinating

Libtards gonna libtard.

Headstart funded preschools are the worst example of this one size fits all food program. Kids that age vary widely in size and stature and virtually none of them can be characterized as obese.  The bigger kids are practically malnourished and their dumbfuck poor parents don't feed them dinner. Preschool was their best chance at food. It's really sad.

[star seed 7]

If that picture is legitimate (serious doubts coming from a website dubbed "common core watch"), then yeah, that's pretty sad

No, they don't. Neither does Michelle Obama.  They also have much less to do with whatever is on a lunch tray than tight lunch budgets. As always, localities and states are free to do almost whatever they want to thumb their noses at the federal government, they just may not do whatever they want and expect federal funds to do them.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Interesting,  the Fed takes 70% (income tax and fica) of all income out of a state then tells states they can have some back if they do things the Fed way, and states don't just go without it?

It's the lunch budget! Go back to posting misleading job graphs from liberal blogs.

Seriously, I don't think anyone who bitches about school lunches has ever actually seen a school lunch.  Our kids get 3 choices, which include delicious entrees like chicken teriyaki, cheeseburgers, pizza, etc....pretty much the same crap that school lunches have been forever.

Color me confused but the menu sounds awesome; the photo looks like some one didn't take all that was offered and picked up a twinkie instead?

The menu was from a private school.

I prefer school lunches to stay small, fwiw. If you are a parent and don't like it, just send some food to school with your kid. My taxes are high enough without overfeeding obese kids.

Haven't read the whole story yet but I'm gonna guess FSD really has his finger on the pulse of this whole situation and everything he's saying is super accurate.

[8manpick]

When I was in school, I got to eat enormous lunches for like $3. Thank God I got out before Michelle started starving kids

I remember it seemed like once a week was "breakfast for lunch" where they got rid of all the extra waffles and sausages they fed the poor kids for breakfast. The waffles were gross. The sausage was even worse. Thinking back, our school lunches were pretty terrible.

I'm coming around to this point of view. If you don't like the shitty lunch being served at the trough, brownbag it. Otherwise, it's salad, bread, and milk for you. Maybe toss in an orange from time to time.

We had that, too. The hash brown wasn't all that bad. The sausage was pretty hit and miss. We also had goulash Fridays. That was the worst.

Screw those poor free and reduced lunch kids!!   

You poor families should be on the Gywneth Paltrow school lunch program.   Poor Mom's, I suggest line caught tuna wraps with fresh chemical free arugula and organic sun dried (natural drying process) tomatoes.   Or, sprouted grain bread with almond butter and fresh organic jam.   Better yet; fresh organic veggie sushi with nori seaweed, short grain brown rice, agave nectar, red wine vinegar, and cooked organic asparagus.

Don't the poor families get food stamps that they can use to feed their kids however they see fit? Do those benefits get reduced because school lunches are factored in or something? It seems like that should be enough, but then again, I'm a conservative, not a tax and spend liberal.

[OK_Cat]

Obviously Dax hasn't visited his grandkids during lunch. They still eat the same crap we ate years ago.

That lunch sounds awesome.  It is noon and I wish I was eating that, but I'm not sure what other connection it has to the topic at hand.
