[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP... Complaining about a healthy food option being made available for kids has got to be one of the stupidest right wing freakouts I've seen all week. But hey, you do you.[/quote] No one is complaining about making healthy options available for kids. They are saying that this puts an unfair burden on restaurants, especially small ones, which will have to make sure they have additional ingredients on hand at all times, perhaps on the off chance they get kids in. As someone else pointed out, the solution to childhood obesity is educational programs for parents and kids. I’d be willing to bet that most obese kids aren’t eating in the restaurants on which this burden will fall. Their parents need to solve this problem. Personally, I’m tired of government decisions that continue to lower expectations of parents and shift the obligations of raising kids to others (schools, mostly, and now restaurants). [/quote]
