Where is the potato going you may ask.....well apparently not in your child's school lunches for much longer. The USDA wants to ban potatoes from school lunches because they think that apparently that is what is making America's chubby little kids the porkers they are. It has nothing to do with the fact that all these kids do is eat junk food- cookies, candy, pop, chips, etc, and sit around and play video games, watch MTV, chat online or whatever else. Think about it- when is the last time you saw a real live child on a bicycle riding around the block for fun? Rollerblading? Walking? I live in a neighborhood FULL of children and I cant possibly remember the last time I saw any child outside doing any sort of physical activity for the sheer joy of it, but yes USDA, you're right...potatoes are America's problem. Lets ban them from lunches and replace them with pizza, pasta, cookies, processed chicken nuggets, 50% beef patties, and whatever else you want to shove America's youth full of.
