Eat A Cookie::Go to Jail
life in the Land of Sunshine and Freedom
The Piedmont High water polo team [caught!] ... in a flagrant act of nutritional disobedience. ...running through school in their Speedos to promote a bake sale across the street. ...selling cupcakes, caramel apples and lemon bars ... But times have been tough since the school banned homemade brownies and cupcakes.
[CA law] require[s] that snacks sold during the school day contain no more than 35 percent sugar by weight and derive no more than 35 percent of their calories from fat and no more than 10 percent of their calories from saturated fat.
[From] ...the chips, the Hostess cupcakes, the Little Debbie doughnut sticks… [to] only pure fruit juice and low-fat or skim milk [and] ...whole-wheat stromboli… edamame ["snacks"]...
...“birthday cakes turned into contraband” and homemade goodies snatched from students “by the long arm and hungry mouth of the law.”...
“Birthday pencils.” whee.
The news story said “sold off campus”.
Let’s have a big cheer for H-O-M-E , S-C-H-O-O-L-I-N-G.
Our ever wise and protective Great Mother the State, knows what’s best for us ("Mother knows best"), and is always looking after our best interests.
Whether we want her to or not.
