99% of the vegetables are eaten by 1% of the school children

Occupy the healthy eaters (and feed them pizza)

Didn't expect that many discussion already, as some people like blackjack stated the real issue there is how such a ridiculous and dangerous (it is dangerous for people who may not be as informed as others and will think that they don't need to eat tomatoes anymore if they eat a pizza instead) bill can be voted by the congress.
It makes you wonder how many of such bills pass, be it in the USA or elsewhere, when it's so clear it was voted because of lobbies who don't give a **** about people's health, only about more money.

Soup is always vegetables plus water, salt, some oil whatever so yeah soup is not a vegetable but it's 90% vegetables but of course you can make a fish or meat soup or even noodles for instance..

Pizza on the other hand is 80% cereal since the "bread" is the most important part of the pizza + cheese so it's not even a good health food.

u just got to adore those cutie pies from america <3

this seems more like an option in a parody of sim city or something.

"DECLARE PIZZA TO VEGETABLE" and somebody accidently clicked it and all school childrens get fat. damn.

I also love the reason: "significant amounts of potassium, vitamin a, c and fibre." yeah and like 70 grams of fat.
Things are laid back in Unidenland. And may the road ahead be lid with dreams and tomorrows. Which are lid with dreams. Also.

I think I'll order a small pizza slice, extra tomato sauce, and 2lb of wings for my lunch. Hey, I've got my serving of vegetables, if I get sick I'm going to sue the f*** out of everyone!

The point is neither is a vegetable and nobody has said either are a vegetable except for the idiots of the internet.

I think I'd make a great lobbyist. I can bullshit with some of the best. I'd just have a hard time living with myself for adding to the childhood obesity problem because I actually have a soul.

This time around, food companies that produce frozen pizzas for schools, the salt industry and potato growers requested the changes and lobbied Congress.


Sometimes I don't understand how anything gets accomplished in America when lobbying is a legally accepted practice.

Sounds ridiculous, but they probably mean one slice of pizza covers x amount of portion of your daily veggie intake. Something like that.

Lobbying is a legally accepted practice in Canada too, as in most countries. It's just... different in America.

Special, if you will.

What's next? Z is pronounced "zee" and pretending they won the Vietnam War or War of 1812? Honestly, I'm not surprised. America is going to do what they want because they don't care about reality.
