Michelle Antoinette defends White House Super Bowl fat fest, says “Healthy eating is about moderation”

Yup. That’s what she said. Moderation. We’re pretty sure she sat Jay-Lo and her Hobbit husband down before the game and told them to ignore the cheeseburgers and deep dish pizza and have a salad instead.

Yup. That’s what she said. Moderation. Because, you know, everyone eats in moderation at Super Bowl parties. We’re pretty sure she sat Jay-Lo and her Hobbit husband down before the game and told them to ignore the cheeseburgers and deep dish pizza and have a salad instead.

Michelle’s hometown Chicago Sun-Times reports:

First Lady Michelle Obama, discussing healthy eating the day before the first anniversary of her “Let’s Move” anti-obesity campaign, defended the White House Super Bowl menu which included bratwurst, kielbasa, cheeseburgers
 and deep dish pizza.

The point is balance, not deprivation, Mrs. Obama said at Tuesday lunch with reporters who cover her East Wing. “I like to talk about my obsession with French fries because I don’t want people to think that “Let’s Move” is about complete, utter deprivation. It is about moderation and real life changes and ideas that really work for families, today’s families too.”

During the year of her “Let’s Move” healthy eating and exercise drive, Mrs. Obama has never said people should quit junk food–just don’t eat it all the time.
“I think I’ve always been very consistent on that front because that’s how I live my life. “I mean, It’s about balance. It’s always about balance. I felt As a mother if somebody came and said ‘you can never have a hot dog’ or serve your child a slice of pizza, we’d never get a handle on this issue cause I think that’s sometimes how people feel, that’s it’s all or nothing.

C’mon, Michelle, Super Bowl Sunday is about eating yourself sick, stuffing your gut with junk until you wish you’d worn sweatpants with an elastic waistband because your belly’s so full. What it’s not about is moderation and balance.

But if you’re truly concerned about moderation, Michelle, perhaps she could do us all a favor and ask your husband to moderate his attempt to socialize the economy of the United States.
