Reading comprehension is fundamental, folks. If you want to argue, take the time to understand what you're arguing about.
From the link:
"This year, Lake County schoolchildren will throw away about $75,000 worth of uneaten fruits and vegetables, the result of a local rule intended to help them eat more healthful foods."
Did you get that? A LOCAL RULE adopted by the Lake County schools, not the new federal rules.
"Lake got ahead of the curve by starting the fruits-and-veggies rule before the new federal mandate was finalized."
Every conclusion in that article regarding the impact of the new federal rules is CONJECTURE. It's the Sentinel's OPINION and their opinion only. The paper is guilty of one of most horrendous crimes a news outlet can be guilty of: editorial opinion disguised as "news."
And, y'all fell for it.
I guess the fact that they know, from experience, that the kids will be feeding so many of their healthy fruits to dumpster divers is totally wrong. They now are forced to feed the kids like that.
I think that maybe you need to take your deflecting ways to a different thread since you actually failed this time.

You sure smacked old Still right in the chops with that post. I can't rep you now but soon.
You said NEW food rules. Since we just had a couple of threads about the new FDA rules, what do you think your headline implies? Not only that, but you mentioned Obama and "Meechelle" in your text.
Sorry, still, he said Obamacare in that post not Obama. Nope, you just jumped on an attack of the food police as one on Obama. What do you call Obamacare in this kind of discussion. Surely not by its official name since that takes most of a line of typing.
Any financially astute restaurant owner will monitor the trash cans. Why? Because it is the best guage for portion control, menu appeal, and shrinkage.
When can we expect government to get on board with being as fiscally prudent as the private sector?
Damne fine question that I bet Media Matters is being assaulted by THEM for an answer to right now.

You made references to Obama and Michelle in your post.

One of the reasons these new rules were adopted was to REDUCE the amount of wastage under the old rules, adopted in 2005 by the Republican Congress and the Bush administration.
Don't believe it? Here's the new FDA rules and their reasoning behind adopting them:

Are you being sarcastic?
