Guess who took the food stamp money

Guess who took the food stamp money. No, it wasn’t Republicans who caused the cuts to food stamps. Obama diverted $4.5 billion from the program to fund Michelle’s bean-sprout-heavy Let’s Move! school lunch program… which kids refuse to eat.

  • The really sad thing is professional chefs have repeatedly shown they can make healthful,tasty food the kids will eat, and still meet government requirements for n u movers of serving in each category and still stay within the miniscule budget allowances provides ED . Health food doesn't have to taste terrible. And shouldn't!

    • What are you saying, that school cafeteria workers are not professional chefs?

      Funny thing is, I don't remember ever eating at the school cafeteria. I remember having to go there when I was young, but I brought my own food. In high school I barely had a conception of where the cafeteria was, and I remember going there once to find someone and wondering, "Why would anybody old enough to make a sandwich come to this dismal nasty smelling place?" In high school I ate at burger joints and bars (drinking age was 18).

      • When I was in high school EVERYONE ate in the cafeteria, lunch from home or not. And no one could go off campus (we were still minors then.) I am saying that there is a way to make good healthy food, but it would mean actuallt changing the approach of the Cafeteria workers, and the Administration. Did anyone watch Jamie Oliver on his 2 Food Revolution shows? He changed the people in Wheeling West Virginia (though they went kicking and screaming) and was doing great in California until a change in management at the District level shut him down. We don't HAVE to feed out kids crap!

  • Michelle’s bean-sprout-heavy Let’s Move! school lunch program

    It got people moving alright, moving to a different school district that didn't follow those guidelines!

  • From someone who LOVES a big plate of gravy fries , she wouldn't be could dead eating bean sprout laden dinner .

    How does it go , " Bad for thee , but Good for me ." ?

  • Well sure Obama did steal $4.5 billion form hungry Americans but the republicans and Ted Cruz made him do it. He was fighting against those cuts he initiated but those evil terrorist hostage takers Tea Partiers held him hostage....
