Congress says PIZZA is a vegetable.

This is ridiculous.
This bill which included a number of provisions including some specifically agriculture department, which is proposed to improving school lunchs.. are you getting me so far? Good.
Congress wants to make tomato paste a vegetable.. now we know that some of these vegetables, the more they are processed, the more this shit will actually do nothing but make you fat. And most of the time these fucking schools will pick the most cheapest tomato paste they can find and put it in their pizzas, and trust me schools will not give a shit to their students' health.
I'm waiting for the day congress forgets how to make a law and they will collapse under the pressure.
This message probably wont make it out to anyone of power (no offence) because this world is too liberal for a peasant like me.

CONGRESS IS A VEGETABLE.

 

I thought pizza was already a vegetable. :(.

 

Speechlessness.

I like pizza.

Also im in America, so yeah pizza.

 

The world doesn't care about health, they care about money and rich people. :/ The schools are gonna give us the crappiest food in the world to make America more over-weight then it already is. :/

 

I would eat more veges...

off to the market.

 

So i am a vegetable now...

 

Oh the irony. Don't worry Pizza, you'll always be a... erm... uhhhhh... ahhhh... non-veggie to me!

 

Yuss you are, but no worries! Hopefully parents will tell their kids to eat veggies more often! And guess what you are! :3

 

Hehe, nice!

 

So congress want to add Pizza, alongside french fries & hash brownies? I guess they want more people to eat more veg, but they can't do that by redefining what a vegetable is. If that were the case we should force a new bill into Congress, one declaring the the members of Congress a bunch of vegetables. Eat them all up, and the problem will go away.

It was the TV Chef Jamie Oliver, who brought to my attention that in the States, anything made of potato is considered a vegetable. He also seems to think that 70% of America's Beef is treated with Ammonia & the USDA allows this ammonia treated mean to enter the marketplace and with no labeling requirement. Grass fed cow meat, the organic stuff, will be labelled, but they aren't exactly allowed to place "Ammonia Free" stickers on their produce. That would insinuate there's something wrong with the other non-labelled crap... but there is!

Do they have that five-a-day thing in the States, the same as we do in the UK?
We also have no tax on vegetables in the UK, so maybe the Pizza/tomato paste thing has a tax incentive behind it.

The way things are going, maybe they want to change it to one-a-day. Maybe then we won't have to shop at the new, free, all-you-can-eat vegetable diner, now being held (Bill pending) in Washington D.C.

 

According to US congress......yes.......

lol

 

Wait,people didnt know pizza and french fries were vegetables?
