As reported at the Mail Online, the signature project of First Lady
Michelle Obama has not produced the gustatory delights that are often a
signal of a chef's accomplishment:
I wonder who thinks that a good result has been gotten when those who review the result say,
"It tastes like vomit."
Like "vomit."
Mind you, I realize the capacity of minors to hyperbolize. But, then, the remark that the food tastes like vomit, was from a school board member. So perhaps
it's not that FLOTUS Moochelle Obama has convinced the federally floated
school lunch program to reconstitute human emesis as breakfast and
lunch. I suspect what it is is that FLOTUS confused her idea of what a
good idea is with what should be the national norm.
I'm for well-balanced meals.
I cook proteins, green and orange veggies I steam, I offer salads with
mixed greens including darker greens, and lots of antioxidants come in
through my tomato doors. I have NEVER had a child or an adult refer to
the results as tasting "like vomit." Nor have I thought that, simply
because folks seem to enjoy my ideas about cooking (maybe just because
if I'm cooking they're being given a break), that I should be made the
national school lunch czar.
Yet FLOTUS is the school lunch
czarina. And given the reaction of students from across the nation, I
think Moochelle may need to be reviewing the history of the Bolshevik
revolution.
POWER TO THE PALATE!
