According to Congress pizza to remain a vegetable - Food Fight!!!

So next year we will plant pizza plants and look forward to harvesting such a yummy, easy to eat veggie. Seriously though, I love pizza and believe it has a place in one's diet, but classified as a serving of a vegetable... I think we can and should do better.

So, here is the link to Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution website as they watch nutritional standards and various lobbyists in Washington as they pertain to what is deliverable for U.S. school lunches. http://www.jamieoliver.com/us/foundation/jamies-food-revolution/news-content/playing-potato-pizza-politics.

I think it is important to know how food reaches your child in school and who you can talk to if you are concerned about the nutritional quality and healthfulness of that food.

In the mean time I'm going out for pizza! Bon Appetit!
