Trans-fat bill exempts junk food in schools?

Posted January 16, 2007 at 12:57 PM by CoolDMZ in Health (1 comment)

Don’t even get me started about the new Statewide trans-fat ban bill. There are circles of Snark Hell reserved for the nanny-state sillyness in the California Assembly. At least with this round, you say, the nannies are protecting the children:

Oils that contain less than 0.5 grams per serving would be OK, as would pre-packaged foods sold in schools

D’oh. Well, at least they banned smokable cancer sticks, right? Double d’oh!!

The school lunch programs in this country are comparable to the prison food programs, for the most part. Junk, junk, junk.

Some say prisoners deserve it..but our kids?!

I once applied for a job as a cook in nursery school. I asked if I could be creative with the menu. I was told the menu was set and all schools had to serve the same junkfood. Ugh. Couldn’t work there!
