There were scientific studies?  I just thought Michelle wanted to starve the kiddies to death.  LOL

Seriously, even to this uneducated old lady, the program seemed horribly unsound.  Inadequate portions and a number of nutritious foods that were banned.  No peanut butter?  Peanut butter has a lot of fat, but in moderation it is healthy.  It provides a number of nutrients.  Nothing wrong with peanut butter unless you consume the whole jar in one sitting.

The poor kids were being starved and malnourished.  Why both parties allowed this program to go on for so long without question is beyond me.
