In a world where a place that sells sandwiches topped with crumbled up GMO Fritos is touted as healthy, it only makes sense that the woman promoting this restaurant to help fight childhood obesity is in charge of making up rules that are geared to keep kids in line.   Continue reading “FLOTUS and the USDA Ban Junk Food Ads from Schools, but Promote Neurotoxins as Healthy Choices”
