I like to pack things that my children will eat, I am not one for wasting food. I understand the basic food groups, I know about vitamins, fats, and proteins. I get it.
What I don't get is having someone like Michelle Obama trying to tell me how many calories my child should have so that they come home starving. How can they think and learn if they are still hungry? Meanwhile- the Yeti and B.O. send their daughters to a very exclusive school- Sidwell Friends School. It is where the rich and powerful educate their children, away from the hoi polloi.
The yeti would have our children eating only 850 calories at lunch. 850 calories for growing children, many of whom get their best meal while at school. These children are hungry. But now, thanks to her, they are hungrier.
Here is an actual menu from the fancy schmancy private school that the Obama children attend. This was served to them on May 29,2014:
Snack: Apples and Cheese
Local Cantaloupe, Coconut, and Lime Soup
Asparagus & Israeli Couscous Salad
Cheese Quesadillas
Sautéed Zucchini & Squash with Fresh Herbs

This is just more of the imperialism from B.O. and family. It's good enough for our children to be hungry after lunch, but not theirs. Think about it, you'll thank me later.
