State Agent Tells Preschooler She Can't Eat Home-packed Lunch
Talk about government run amok, get a load of this. A preschooler in North Carolina was told by a state official that the lunch that was packed by her mother was unacceptable, because it did not meet USDA guidelines. The official then made the preschooler purchase a lunch provided by the school, and the girl later went home with her uneaten sack lunch AND a bill for $1.25. Talk about Big Brother watching you!
As reported in the Carolina Journal Online, the girl's mother packed her a " turkey and cheese sandwich, banana, potato chips, and apple juice." However, this meal "did not meet U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines, according to the interpretation of the agent who was inspecting all lunch boxes in her More at Four classroom that day."
Lunch box inspection? Are you serious? I'm pretty sure there are better uses of state funds than inspecting preschoolers' lunch boxes.

The above story is the kind of madness Michelle Obama is promoting with her "government should tell you what you can eat" proposals.
Granted this was a State worker, but her basis was federal guidelines. With that in mind, understand that there is no constitutional authority for the federal government to dictate to you what you are allowed to eat. The guidelines may act as a recommendation, but nothing further. Second of all, and this is a statement directed at Michelle Obama and all of those busy bodies that support her garbage: "It is none of your damn business how I eat, or how I feed my kids. Especially when instances like the above story shows what kind of idiots you have policing your authoritarian policies."
