And how exactly is this important?
Michele Obama began a campaign to address child obesity. But gee... only a few years prior she was a board member of a snack food company. But okay, maybe she realizes that company contributed to the problem in a big way and now she wants to do something to pay back. And at first she did. She spoke clearly about the problem of sugary drinks and snacks for children. But then the sugar lobbyist in Washington would have none of that. So what did she do? She sold out and changed her message completely and never, not once did she utter the word sugar again.
Which is worse?
Why are conservatives so outraged over healthy eating?
I think Michelle Obama lobbying for the misnamed Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act, which replaced whole milk in school lunches with low fat milk that has had most of it's nutrition stripped out so that companies can use that nutritious milk fat to make other profitable products is outrageous.
The bottom line is that they remove most of the nutrition from the milk and sell it to school districts for the same price as whole milk. So basically, they get to sell the same product twice. That's a ******* rip-off.
And it also allowed companies to sell fake meat to school districts by replacing part of the meat with cheap meat "fillers" made from mega-processed soy protein isolates.
There is nothing healthy about it.
