Digest Number 3659

February 24, 2012

Mea Culpa,

I send over 120 emails a day, on a normal day, 99% of them fully

work/business, not dpg/listserv related.

Stop reading now if you're politically sensitive.

And, I'd read that Michele Obama was supporting the pizza sauce as veggie

bill. (If you sleep with the president, are you NOT a part of his

administration?) - Oh, unless you're Hillary, who I don't know what she does

since

her daughter was born, since her hubby has been sleeping with other women

for 30+ years now, and she's known it all along - we've known some of his

body guards when he was in ARK - her " disbelief during the Lewinski trials

was all faked and pulled the wool over SO many American women's eyes. . .

they actually felt sorry for her. . .sigh. Folks, sometimes nutrition IS

politics - and who you should believe/or not. Sadly, most politicians can't

be believed. But, I digress. . . ;-} Sorry, couldn't resist. (If you're

offended, you were WARNED to stop reading earlier, so don't complain now!)

First lady Obama and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced

the new guidelines during a visit Wednesday with elementary students.

And, yes, I was " thinking " pizza sauce, but " said " catsup. . . .-But, that

was in error too, since I don't consider pizza sauce as a condiment. . .

And, I know very few pizzas that spread 2 T. tom paste per slice. (It

seems commercial pizza rarely has but a little slathering of tomato on it. . .)

Digna - re: " Condiment Chart " - I'd assume that's a lot different than a

" Spice Chart " that I used when Food Service Director years ago. I clearly

don't consider herbs and spices " condiments " - other than pepper. But, my new

favorite condiment, chimichurri sauce, IS full of herbs. (I've been

hanging out with a few Argentineans this winter.)

When the First Nutritionist speaks .. There you go! And of course she's

near

getting her advanced credentials since she attended an Academy (AND)

walkathon or some such thing in FL.

Well, what's " appropriate " Well, what's " appropriate " ? If Obama

vegetable, then recommendations should be to use unlimited amounts, as

we'd

recommend unlimited intake of vegetables. Same for french fries. . . sigh .
