Comments on: Obama Pizza, Chili Makes Us Healthier http://sweetness-light.com/archive/ap-obamas-pizza-chili-makes-us-healthier Mon, 13 Feb 2012 03:34:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: neocon mom http://sweetness-light.com/archive/ap-obamas-pizza-chili-makes-us-healthier#comment-150356 neocon mom Fri, 12 Jun 2009 12:58:16 +0000 http://sweetness-light.com/archive/ap-obamas-pizza-chili-makes-us-healthier#comment-150356 This "farm to table" nonsense has been prevailing dogma ever since Alice Waters wrote a letter to Bill Clinton. Yes, the left and their food-snobbery are trying to take over what we "think" about what we eat. I thought cooking school was the one place where we might be free of some leftist ideology but I saw that Hillary was at my alma mater while representing New York, blabbing about sustainability. Farmer's markets are just another place to shove stale hippie ideology down one's throat. Without large, industrial production farms we'd starve, without importing produce from Chile and Mexico, low income folks would be priced out of eating fresh produce. The notion that eating "locally" is heroic, just another dumbed-down, phony version of good citizenship. Like how "recycling" is shoved down everyone's throat as virtue--putting the right number plastic container into the approved government-issue bin.

Does he really expect us to believe this. And what about all the costs for security checks, etc. that this trip necessitated? And the extra food-tasters? Add your own thoughts to the list. The only things I want to know about Obama he steadfastly refuses to supply. Hey Barry; How about a birth certificate? How about your entrance test scores to Occidental? How about your SAT scores? How about your published articles in the Harvard Law Review? How about your transcripts? I couldn't care less about what you eat, or if you even do. But I would like to know if you're still doing 'smack'? Some of your ideas would indicate so. I just loved the part where the pizza guy says he went to D C on his own dime.

But to take the article apart:

Exactly, this buffoon is ordering pizza and pancakes from all over the country–ordinary food! just because he can.

Pizza from St. Louis, pancakes from Pittsburgh. A juicy burger or a chili half-smoke in D.C., soul food in Chicago. Our new president eats something and the world wants to eat it, too.

The press maybe, but then I wonder when they’ll start selling locks of his hair.

….Eddie Gehman Kohan, editor of the “Obama Foodorama” blog (subject matter self-explanatory.) She sees a fusion of two potent forces: An escalating interest in food and food policy, and enormous curiosity in anything Obama.

bangheadontable…bangheadontable…bangheadontable…bangheadontable…bangheadontable…bangheadontable…bangheadontable…

And all this interest may have even more to do with Michelle than Barack. Some polls have shown the first lady is even more popular than her husband, and for all the focus on her fashions and her biceps, she’s made food a prime area of interest — especially with her new White House kitchen garden.

Anyone seen pictures of her gardening yet? And more on her biceps and how popular “Gorgeous and Gracious” is…..

“She’s brought new and much needed attention to critical food issues,” says Kohan. “She’s also really raised awareness by describing her family’s own journey through bad food habits and into a healthier lifestyle.”

See the above about pizza and chili…….

Debate is even taking place over offhand comments Mrs. Obama has made about cooking.

“I don’t miss cooking. I’m just fine with other people cooking,” she told children in a lighthearted discussion at the White House recently. But to food writer Amanda Hesser, “…the message was unmistakable: that everyday cooking is a chore.”

STOP THE PRESSES! MICHELLE SAID SOMETHING! Yes, I’m not surprised she’s fine with other people cooking, I doubt she did much in the first place, but she’d bringing up “food awareness” anyways….

Writing recently on the The New York Times op-ed page, Hesser urged Mrs. Obama to venture back into the kitchen. “Her progress could be our progress,” Hesser wrote. “And with those arms, she could out-whisk anyone.”

I can’t wait for the Madame Tussuad wax museum to add a copy of Michelle’s biceps for future generations to admire…..

“People forget: Presidents and first families don’t come from Mars,”

No, but he might as well be.

“Please Do Not Take a Table Before you have ordered and have a number”

Yep…I know HE took a number….sure

“Please ask for assistance in moving the tables”
‘Please give seating priority to others when appropriate”

Yep, ’cause HE is THE priority…Wonder how many folks he kicked out of their chairs in order to be seated, let alone move the tables so he didn’t have to be seated next to the riff raff.
