It's a freaking recipe. If you're not interested, move on. It's not like she's trying to get chocolate and marshmallow s'mores outlawed. She's offering a healthier OPTION. Oh, the horrors!

And yes, strawberries and yogurt are healthier than milk chocolate and marshmallow, no matter how you slice it.
I thought all of it would be good..........fruit, calcuim and sugar, what is better than this!

Possibly, she could be in Ferguson and Baltimore teaching those kids to get along better and create their OWN jobs.

One thing for sure about "progressives" -- they're all infatated with the idea of harnessing government's power to force their agenda on everybody else.

Sooner or later, all the authoritarian "horse-trading" at the expense of those of us who just want to live our lives in peace and quiet has to break down.

I confess; I've made them right in my own kitchen. I hope the penalty isn't life without parole!

I WAS going to tweet out a new way to make hot dogs and beans, but I fear the conservative backlash!
Now this is something Michelle should advocate against, talk about 'yuck' food!

When something is packaged and states, 'by products' or beef or turkey parts time to rethink what you are eating.

What yogurt are you eating. You can always find lower sugar and lower calorie alternatives for pretty much anything.


siggi


5 ounces=9 grams of sugar.



Dannon Light & Fit® Greek Yogurt


5 ounces=7 grams of sugar.

Not to mention that you'd only be putting a tablespoon and not 5 ounces on your s'more (with a nod to apexgds). But let's not try to reason through this dreadful affront to our freedom.

No. Absolutely not. Can't you see how wrong it is to suggest that a particular food is bad for you? It's worse than communism/socialism/totalitarianism/liberalism and yoga all rolled into one.

Did you read the ingredients on that label? These "diet" foods are all a farce. This yogurt, right on the label in the link you posted accomplishes that by using a combination of fructose & sucralose, an artificial sweetener.

It's been proven that these artificial sweeteners cause as much weight gain, if not more than real sugar aside from all the other issues they cause.
