The USDA recently proposed new school lunch menus that offer low-income kids a broader choice in food selection, overturning restrictions enacted by the Obama Administration.  New choices would include burgers, pizza, and fries, and fewer entries such as kale, rutabaga, and processed pears.  The Agency said that kids were mostly throwing those so-called healthy options into the trash can because they tasted so badly.  They wanted to offer kids foods that they would actually eat.

Opponents argue that these new foods are high in salt, carbs, and fat content, and are likely to lead to childhood obesity.  A spokesman for the Agency responded, “I thought you idiots were worried about starvation in these kids.  Now you’re worried about obesity.  Which one is it?  You can’t be starving too badly if you’re 50 pounds overweight and buying clothes in the chubby section.”

As a compromise, the Agency may allow inclusion of the new meatless, plant-based burgers.  These new patties allegedly taste about the same as beef burgers, and give the impression to health fanatics as being a healthier alternative to real meat.  One kid responded, “Hey, if I don’t like it, I know where to put it.”

Poverty parents are applauding the new direction, since their kids will now come home less famished.  One parent living in subsidized housing remarked, “Give ’em double burgers, and we’ll be able to skip dinner entirely.  That will put a lot less pressure on my cigarette money.”  It appears to be a win/win.

Speaker Pelosi and some of her Socialist-minded friends are now turning their anger on Facebook.  This latest bit of rage came after Facebook refused to take down a post that showed the Speaker slurring her words.

“What Facebook did or didn’t do is irresponsible,” a spokesman for the Left commented.  “They are trying to make it look like she had just been smoking a doobie at an Impeachment Celebration party.  Remember, marijuana is legal in California now, and everyone here has the right to be high, even politicians.”

Pelosi said that Facebook only cares about making money and getting tax breaks by schmoozing Trump.  Other California Leftists added that Facebook people don’t care a lick about sharing wealth with our other comrades, putting an end to climate change, or implementing full government-run universal health care…causes that are important to an increasing number of young Facebook users, who have been methodically brainwashed by teachers to recognize “the truth.”  .  They warned that they better stay in touch with their customers, if they want to survive long term.

A Conservative spokesman asked, “How many other states have Marijuana Legalization on the ballot in November?”
