the pizza issue

Here is a link to an article about this "pizza is a vegetable" issue.

You can go to CSPI {here} and click on "veggie?"

From there you can fill out some basic information and they will send a letter to your state representatives. It is really quick and easy.

Here is a great quote {sarcasm} from the above article.

"It's an important victory. Our concern is that the standards would force companies in many respects to change their products in a way that would make them unpalatable to students."

- Corey Henry, spokesman for the American Frozen Food Institute

So we've made healthy foods unpalatable to kids?

Sad. I guess most people just assume kids don't like vegetables and all they like is pizza.

Guess what?

If that's all you feed them, then that's what they will like.

Same goes for chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, and grilled cheese.

My kids love all those foods, but they love A LOT of other foods too.

Kids deserve a chance to like other foods. Give them that chance!
