Seriously? Do you understand how healthy this is in comparison to pounds OD butter and sugar? This has minimal bread and is mostly vegetables w a thin layer of cheese and sauce.

Just what the USA needs, pictures of women being shamed for eating!

I must say that those cookies look delicious and I'd prob eat like 5 in a day if someone made them for me.

But all the haters need to complete the loop. I'm sure most of you don't want your tax money going to fund programs like this. I personally don't want my tax dollars funding the health care of a nation of obese citizens.

You can't have it both ways. You WILL be funding one or the other. And funding indigent health care is not new, it's only been brought to light a the ACA asking for more personal responsibility.

So what do you want to fun? I'd personally rather fund programs to help people lose weight than help pay for all of the health probs obesity brings.

Honestly, I am a liberal and would rather pay for neither, so how about you all don't be fat! You know, like don't be poor!

“It no longer meets the national school lunch program guidelines for snacks,” said Amy Higgins, the spokesperson for Elyria City Schools. “It has too many calories.”

Feds ban school
False argument, they can still make and sell it, they just cant use federal money to do it

We didn't use any government funds to bake our cookies - they were very profitable and paid for themselves. We also made large special occasion cookies to order (several racks of them on Valentine's Day, for example). Also the kids...as well as the teachers and administration...ordered specially made birthday cookies for friends. They weren't free. They had to pay for them.

Now we are not allowed to make them at all.

Yes you are. You have chosen to not make them. Make them, sell them, no one is going to do a thing about it.

I personally would avoid pictures of eating if I was pushing people not to eat.

Food Police and no time for ISIS.
People are obsessed with disrespecting her especially. No other President's wife has been to subjected to the same level of disrespect. Says much about the low morals of many Americans.

Respect is earned. Not something given just because everyone knows your name....

Agreed. The way some people speak of her is appalling.

That will happen when you tell people that you know better what is best for their kid than they do.

People with any semblence of morality have a general respect for other human beings. Further, it is a sign of backward culture to feel it is acceptable to disrespect a man's wife.
