As a highschool teacher I have always wondered why the highschool lunch program that our taxes fund are so bad.
A typical lunch for a kid consists of 2 scoops of seasoned french fries (as two of their vegetables) with nacho cheese on top, one of those crappy burgers with the white bread bun that they use to slop up some barbeque sauce and maybe get 4-5 grams of protein, and a big cinnomon role, with a sunny D or something to drink (rarely even milk, or chocolate milk which would be the best thing on the plate)
You can’t even GET a healthy meal if you want to. Oh maybe a famous lettuce salad.
The lunch ladies have even gone to offering kids the “all french fries” tray where they just cover your tray in fries and cheese sauce. Its a lot easier then having to listen to kids make choices. I know we have to support our potato growers and dairy farmers.
Government and corporation (AKA “They”) prefer having fat, sickly adults. Slow and stupid is nice too. Moving around a lot is quite a hassle when you’re fat, so you don’t go out and protest much. No marching for Iraq and all that crap. You’ll tend to stay home and sit in front of the TV, where the media (controlled by THEY of course) can tell you what to think and what to say; not to mention what to buy and what music you like.
The younger you can start the “conditionning”, the better it is. Young children are naturally active and curious and you must crush that spirit as soon as possible. Make them learn to sing dumb songs, eat crappy food and endure long boring hours of learning nothing. Next thing you know, you’re ready for Wal*Mart or some other McJob.
Enjoy.
Actually, I think it’s simply because most people don’t care much about nutrition and don’t think twice about what they feed their kids. So, chalk it up to basic lazyness coupled with limited budgets (no nutritionists on the payroll I would guess) and there you go.
Yes, Pookie (did I just write that?), the first one was more fun. However, I think it can be chalked up more to the second. People are stupid. I am asked fairly often, in voices of awe-inspired wonder, what I am drinking. When I say “Protein shake”, you would swear their world had collapsed as if they heard the words “Magical Goat Piss”. People believe what they want to hear. This is why the Atkins diet has probably lead to some people actually getting fatter simply because they ran with the words “eat fat and protein” and ordered 3 Double Bacon Cheeseburgers for lunch…without the bun…and a diet soda. “I can’t wait for dinner!!”
I quit eating that crap pretty early on in school and stuck with the tuna sandwhiches my mom made. I may have been skinny as hell by graduation, but at least I could touch my toes. If people were willing to take control of their own lives and the lives of their children, we wouldn’t have this problem. Too bad this is America…the land of the dependant, the gutless, and the flabby. Warriors are a minority who seem to only be valued in times of war. In fact, before Iraq came to the front line, estrogen had risen in this country to levels so high you can taste it upon your first breath in the morning.

Guess you did. Did it hurt?
I was drinking my shake at work and a coworker, who was at the time washing down a bag of Doritos with a diet Pepsi, told me I was “nuts” for drinking that “stuff”.
Good for you that your mom cared enough to feed you properly. It really pisses me off when I see fat morons feeding all kinds of shit to their kids. At 5 years old, you depend on your parents to make good decisions for you. WTF is wrong with those parents?
From your avatar pic, I’d guess you fixed both those problems…
Yeah, whatever happened to personal responsability? What kind of idiot sues McDonalds because he’s fat? Why doesn’t he sue his parents for making him so stupid that he didn’t know Big Macs and fries weren’t healthy?

That fits right in with my 1st theory. Since THEY like their consumers fat, stupid and lazy; once every 10 years, THEY must send the cream of the crop to be slaughtered in battle. Make sure any who make it back are addicted to something/sick/disabled and make sure it’s an unpopular war so that they’ll be reviled by their own.
