[quote:~kpm~:MV8zMTMyNzEzXzU1OTE0NDQwXzg0QzdFRDZF] The USDA is fed up (pun intended), and now they're fighting back - against the disgusting photos of federally-controlled school lunches that all you kids keep posting to social media. Now that the school year is coming to a close across this great nation, students will no longer be able to catch snaps of their horsemeat on a soggy bun, their watery sauces and their meager portions, all meals issued pursuant to Michelle Obama's healthy eating standards, foisted on public schools and their unconsenting populations...... The blog post is entitled "Photo Worthy Meals" but includes only one photo of one actual meal, served not in your run-of-the-mill public school, but in a charter school. More control and propaganda......The USDA should be ashamed of what is being served to our kids, the photo they are using is a sham.... http://spectator.org/blog/62773/usda-pushes-back-thanksmichelleobama-school-lunch-protest [/quote]
Original Message
The federal government is taking steps to fine schools that do not comply with first lady Michelle Obama’s school lunch rules.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrition Service issued a proposed rule Monday to codify parts of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, which was championed by Mrs. Obama.
The regulation would punish schools and state departments with fines for “egregious or persistent disregard” for the lunch rules that imposed sodium and calorie limits and banned white grains.
A West Virginia preschool teacher was threatened with fines for violating the rules by rewarding her students with candy for good behavior in June 2015. The teacher ultimately did not have to pay, but the school had to develop a “corrective action plan” with training on the policies.
