Family Forum / Parenting / Mothers / April 2005Supersize me?
Has anyone watched this? I just watched it. After seeing it, it made me wonder what our schools were selling. HOLY BLOODY HELL!!!! My old high school averages 1500 calories PER MEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know many kids that eat three meals a day at that school!!!! Damn are we living in a fast food nation. >Has anyone watched this? >I just watched it.

Yeah, too bad the schools have to have corporate welfare to get by with even minimalist approaches to providing a decent environment for kids. Nan >>Has anyone watched this? >>I just watched it.

I just can't believe the crap they serve. >Fries, gravy, cheese, beef... >no salads. no fruit. no vegetables. Well, that's because there are not Mcfruit corporations that can throw money at the schools for serving their products. Nan Bitch at the schools instead of here. Whine, whine, whine. I see why hoosier rhymes with loser. > >It freaking sucks! I just can't believe the crap they serve. > >Fries, gravy, cheese, beef...

It's the gub'mint that keeps slashing the budget. 3.6 million for the 2005-2006 school year has to be cut from a neighboring county. Nan No child left behind. Ha ha Darth Bader, vote for bush again! Darth Vader had postpartum depression too! > >Has anyone watched this? > >I just watched it. [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Nan >No child left behind. While I agree the initiative is a dismal failure, it has nothing to do with corporate welfare providing money to schools. There have been junk food vending machines and soda machines in our local middle and high schools since the mid 80s. My son's middle school was serving Taco Bell and Pizza Hut in the mid 90s. Long before Shrub et al took over. Nan > Has anyone watched this? > I just watched it.

Really I've looked at the fat and kcal's for different fast food and it makes me ill... not to mention the sodium and all that! Haven't seen the movie but just looking at the nutrition charts for fast food is enough to get me going! Anni >> Has anyone watched this? >> I just watched it.

EW EW EW EW EW I'm just watching now - how freaky is that?? !! > I'm just watching now - how freaky is that?? !!

Oh the Sour Dough Jacks used to sustain me in my serious morning sickness... strange food to crave! Anni You're more than supersized, manatee. > Has anyone watched this? > I just watched it.

Did you notice the McDonalds bag? http://community.webshots.com/photo/333167495/333167927dWnokA > Has anyone watched this? > I just watched it.

You've got way too much time on your hands, Weenie. Nan > Has anyone watched this? > I just watched it.

It's about a TV chef's crusade to improve the diets of English youngsters. Really interesting and he's very passionate about his cause. He's getting the councils and the govt involved. Maybe someone should start a similar crusade in the US. Liz |
