It's not as if no one wants to eat the dreadful "healthy" lunches the Bitter Half has been instrumental in imposing on public school students. Pigs don't mind them:

New Mexico's Galloping Grace Youth Ranch is accepting fruits and vegetables thrown away by students at several elementary schools in the Rio Rancho area and collects some five tons per week.

"It's really whatever they don"t eat coming off of their trays, so when they get up to the trash cans they will scrape it into one of our buckets that we pick up on a daily basis," ranch CEO Max Wade tells KRQE.

So long as Mooch dictates school lunch menus, there will be no shortage of pig slop.

Earlier this year, a New York district estimated its students throw away 85 percent of their fruits and vegetables.

"We throw away a ton of food," Canton Central School Food Service Director Ella Mae "Bluejay" Fenlong tells the Watertown Daily Times.

"If we cut up 20 pounds of cucumbers, we guess that 17 pounds get thrown away. I've watched kids take their cup of vegetables or fruit they're required to take and just throw it away."

Liberal bureaucrats should zero right in on the problem: the kids are required to take the mandated items; they aren't actually required to eat them. Extra lunch monitors to ensure they eat the stuff no matter how repulsive they find it would help lower unemployment.

American schools spend an estimated $3.5 million per day on food that ends up in the garbage can.

No worries; taxpayers have plenty of money. Tax Freedom Day can be extended another 8 months before we are turning over literally every penny to Big Government.

If federal intervention in school lunch menus gets so bad that not even pigs will eat the results, there are always worms:

The Nebraska Farmers Union was working to partner with Lincoln-area schools to collect discarded food to fuel a worm farm, known as vermiculture.

When the worms won't eat it�

Even tho all that food gets thrown away, majority of americans are still obese

lol, because they aren't eating meechelles lunches...

Why didn't this get moved to Politics?

Coz pol�ticians make food recipes too, other then making recipes for destruction

have to ask the movers...i was torn between general discussion or humor...

i don't know why, but monsanto keeps coming to my mind when i hear about M.O. and school lunches...

i make my son's lunch for school

Chicago and some other school systems ban that...

Hope it won't kill the Porkers!
