I was reading up on nutrition and views on it when I came across this site that completely horrifies me...

http://www.fathead-movie.com/index....unches-are-revolting-and-so-are-the-students/ not sure how to do links, forgive me.

Anyways, this one article got me more so, the comments from readers moreso.
Am I right in believing they are sayig current lunches made available from the government are healthy???? In what world was the pizza and fries I grew up on throughout my school years healthy? The comments seems so unbelievable...

Now, perhaps my views are different being a vegetarian, or the dact that I have read up a little on what happena to your body when you eat certain thinga...

Don't mind my rambling, what I really want to know are your views on nutrition (not necissarily being a vegetarian, but how unhealty food is now)

I really hate typing on my phone ._.

Apparently this website came from a movie I've yet to see. Reminds me of conspiracy movies that give you "facts" then everone you know and their sister believes it to be true

School lunches will be different depending on where you live but the school lunches that I've been eating are no healthier for you then fast food. They fed us pizza, cheese burgers, fish sticks, fries, tater tots, cookies, brownies, chocolate milk, etc. To say that these things are healthy is a joke.

The school lunches I grew up with were absolute trash. None of it was fresh, many of the dishes were fried or greasy, and the so called "healthy" options were so unappetizing, most people just went with the junk food instead.

I'm pretty health obsessed and almost always eat organic. Unless I'm eating out at a restaurant or with friends, I try and maintain a pretty strict paleo (or vegan) diet as well.

My take was people simply not liking the new rules than endorsing the way things were as healthy?

I saw the Fat Head film a year or two ago. The movie was made in reply to the film Supersize Me. The guy lives off fast food for a month, with certain restrictions like on daily carb intake, and he loses a bunch of weight.

I spent a lot of time reading up about nutrition a while back. There are so many conflicting ideas, it is ridiculous.
