Ted, Schools Try for Healthier Food in Lunches

Sat Oct 2, 9:58 PM ET Health - AP


By IRA DREYFUSS, Associated Press Writer

Texas no longer serves deep-fat fried food and is reducing the amount of other fats, as well as sugars. San Francisco banned sodas and snacks from cafeterias, and is studying ways to cut fat and sugar what is offered.
...
Yummy: The district offers "grab-and-go" salads, and combination plates of fruit, vegetables and a sandwich.

When I was in school, never understand why we didn't have fresh fruit/vegies from the local farms.

Apparently, now organic food is (finally) popular in school. About time.

re: What makes you think Rove was behind the flipper mantra? I think Bush didn't know what else to say.

Because it's Talking Point #1. Every Republican operative that touches the press repeats the same mantra, almost verbatum. Rove is exceptional at getting everyone on the same point, and endlessly repeating it (even DR is playing the game). Right now there are only 2 talking points they want to get across, #1 waffler and #2 Global Veto.
No matter what the question, they slip #1 or #2 into the answer. If only the Democrats has such discipline.

And it works... people believe what they hear most often.
