Restaurants aren't the problem. If the government stopped serving pizza, french fries and coke to the majority of kids every day at school, this country would meet the nutrition goals years sooner.

Michelle Obama: No invite to royal wedding

Michelle Obama isn't going to the royal wedding.

"You're not?!" asked Kelly Ripa this morning as Mrs. O. made an appearance on Live with Regis and Kelly.

I don't have any thoughts or knowledge on that, Bob. My guess is all school cafeterias have guidelines on how much food to serve and it's no easy task to avoid waste and also offer a variety. Each kid will eat certain things and not others.

If food prices keep going up, maybe the school will have to start offering just one thing. Like one baked potato. Eat this or stay hungry all afternoon. Most likely waste would be cut that way. <gg>
