Schools try to keep kids from tossing out fruit, veggies

http://www.orlandosentinel.com/features/education/os-school-food-waste-20120930,0,1993800.story
 
At Triangle Elementary School in Mount Dora, students shuffle through the lunch lines loading their plates with pears, plums, pizza slices and fruit slushies. At the lunch tables, many devour the cheese-and-mushroom pizza, guzzle their milk but leave whole pears, ripened plums and the slushies destined for the garbage.
 
"Unfortunately, we do force-feed some of it," said Carol Brewer, a school food-service manager, while monitoring the bustling cafeteria. "They've got to have a fruit or a veggie."
 
This year, prompted by changes in federal school-lunch rules, Central Florida students are not allowed to turn down the healthful produce, much of which can end up in the dumpster. The issue has caught the attention of Lake County school leaders who say they want staff to use surveys, or even trash cams — cameras mounted on cafeteria garbage bins — to study what's being thrown away.
 
Last year, Lake schools were the only ones in Central Florida to sample the new rules a year before they were required. And they estimated that students tossed $75,000 of produce in the garbage. This year, School Board members say they want stricter trash monitoring to figure out what's working and what's not with the new federal policy.

As you can probably already guess, the majority of the responses don't address the failure of the program, but rather try to explain away why this is happening.  It can't possibly be that forced liberalism has failed, it's that it hasn't been implemented correctly, or it's the fault of the parents, or the kids are just brats, or they need to implement some type of compliance/reward program, or the kid's only need more forced liberal indoctrination in order to comply with what is best for them.  But admit that the program is a failure and needs to be scraped?  No way!

For liberals to understand the principles behind this and to apply it to other issues they wish to force upon others is too much to ask.

Correction, FORCED LEFTISM.  Nothing, NOTHING, about what these people do fits the definition of liberal. Everything, EVERYTHING about what these people do fits the definition of totalitarianism.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

What kid eats whole pears and ripened plums, anyway? What ever happened to apples or grapes? Things kids would enjoy.

Or a banana, sliced oranges good fruit. Even as an adult I don't like pears or plums.

My best guess is that Queen Moochelle has demanded it and further, 0bama donors own most of the plum and pear orchids. Not that I think every thing the Obama Regime does is corrupt.

Plums have always been my youngest son's favorite fruit, since he was about 5. My oldest, it was kiwis. But since I love, love, love fruit we've always eaten a variety around my house. Veggies OTOH, not so much. I have brussel sprouts, lima beans & green peppers and vegetables all mixed together (except in soup).

Apples, grapes, oranges, bananas, watermelon, pineapple.  Watch how many kids eat those.

Hey, I always liked pears. We used to buy them from the market or pick those and plums from the tree in my grandparents' yard (until the storm destroyed it.)  :mad:

The Liberal Overlords® saw them in a still life at the art museum and figured everyone MUST like them.
              

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.
