Absurdity? Well, I am dealing with a broad who thinks it's odd that someone would stop a girl from having an abortion, but it makes perfect sense to take her cupcake away. Truth be told, I don't care if she has either. But you were saying? Absurd? Hmmm...
Under those rules, bake sales cannot be held on school grounds unless the items meet nutrition standards that specifically limit portion sizes, fat content, sodium and sugars. That two-ounce, low-fat granola bar? Probably OK, depending what's in it. But grandma's homemade oversized brownie with cream cheese frosting and chocolate chips inside? Probably not.
One loophole in Connecticut: The nutritional standards apply if the food is being sold at a bake sale, but not if it's being given away free, such as by a parent for a child's birthday.

Hence, Mrs. Obama's new law determines if the kid can eat the cupcake, unless her mom brings it in. So, either Mom or Obama have to approve if she is to have a cupcake. If she has an abortion, however, that is her private business.
Yet you don't find that odd?
