@blackjack "Congress declares 2 tablespoons of tomato paste qualifies as a vegetable!" Pretty sure this still qualifies as outrageous | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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

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. | ||

the fuck bread, cheese, and pepperoni are NOT vegetables. So I guess Chicken Soup is a vegetable too since there's some other shit in there | ||
