[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m Middle Eastern. We eat lots of vegetables and kids love it. The “healthy” meals serve in schools taste terrible and Michelle Obama’s entire Lets Move program was poorly executed. Who eats raw broccoli? It tastes disgusting. Undercooked vegetables taste disgusting as well. For broccoli sautee it in olive oil and garlic until soft or roast it in the oven. It needs to be cooked well. Vegetables shouldn’t be a side anyways. They should be incorporated in the meal. Same with beans. There are so many wonderful vegetable filled stews in Middle Eastern cuisine. The vegetables cook for a long time and taste delicious. Cook your vegetables people and actually learn how to cook! Kids will eat anything if it tastes good and they try it enough times.  Also salads don’t need to be dosed in some disgusting dressing. Instead how about just lemon and olive oil and salt? Maybe a little bit of garlic. School meals can be healthy and delicious. But they aren’t. And it’s quite baffling that people don’t understand this.[/quote]

By the way it’s entirely possible to have yummy school lunches. Check out NYC’s alternative lunch program’s menus. Also in Colorado. I forgot what school district. [/quote]
