The Health Care Reform bill has a section that restricts food in vending machines. What is your take on that?
Sweets and empty calories will be banned from School vending machines. What is your opinion, should the Government monitor what is offered in a vending machine?

It's already in existence, created by school districts: On the first day of the 2007â€“08 school year, more than 78 percent of students were enrolled in a district with a policy restricting vending machine sales.
2 :
In schools? Yes, they should be banned there. During those times when a government institution (public schools) are in charge of our kids they should be responsible. If a parent wants their kids to eat junk they can always send them to school with it. The majority of parents want to limit our children's acces to junk foods not encourage it.

i think its pretty stupid...let people eat what they want i mean its their body. plus the health care plan by obama is bull crap because i know i dont have any money left over to pay more taxes to help illegals.
4 :
kids should be allowed to eat all the junk food they want- the American way

Does it seem like Cons secretly WANT Michelle and Barry to be health food commies just so they can complain

Does it seem like Cons secretly WANT Michelle and Barry to be health food commies just so they can complain?
Seriously Obama smokes and eats half about burgers he washes down with bud light. When the **** did this man or his wife tell you want you can or can't eat? They're SUGGESTING that kids put down the Xbox controller and play in a park every now and then. For those of you who didn't know SCHOOL LUNCHES BY THEIR VERY NATURE ARE ALREADY SOCIALIST so who cares if they switch to health food? To those of you who are saying that they went to school the lunches weren't health food I say this - I grew up in the 80s-90s where every class maybe had one or to chubby kids and obese kids were rare. In the 2000s when i was in college it was the same thing. Now i go to pick up my little cousin form school and half the kids are chubby with a fat kid in every group of friends. You want to keep this going? If you do then for the MILLIONTH TIME - send.....your..... kid.....with.....lunch.....from......home. Honeybee - Are there any women in the late 40s with two kids you'd like to see in a bikini? You're not the coolest of people are you? The dude - He does. That's why he can run two blocks without keeling over. TANIA - BINGO!! So why can't the rest of the country do it?

No we just want them to leave us alone and stop being "do-gooders". Show your cousin what playing outside is like. Isnt that what you used to do as a kid? Do you think that might have soemthing to do with it? I hate to tell you but our food was horrendious when i was in school and we didnt have such a problem. Its not the food's fault ppl your kids are lazy. I had my neice for a few days and she wanted to earn some money so we had her help with some gardening. Well, imagine how hard it is to weed while texting with gloves on. Then after 20 mins, she decided she was "tired" and had to go inside and lay down. Its freaking pathetic.

I went to school for a week in georgia because they made all kids enroll, even though we were only visiting family on vacation. they made you pick something from every food group, or you could bring something from home. this was when I was going into 5th grade 17 or 18 years ago. it's nothing new. my sister, being an extremely picky eater, would bring peanut butter and jelly sandwiches from home. my regular school didn't have cafeteria-style lunch. everyone always brought their own. if you're going to rely on the school to feed your kids, they'll just have to eat what the school gives them. if it's not harmful, you really can't do anything about it other than make your kids lunch.

the zionist agenda of greed is behind the obesity epidemic . it started when big biz changed from wholesome sugar and started to put HFCS into foods to make a few pennies extra profit . HFCS hit the body the same as if you were drinking liquid lard .
5 :
School lunches are socialist and the generally sucked, so if A=B and B=C then A=C and socialism sucks. And school lunches have nothing to do with the rising rate ob obesity in the country, children these days do not play outdoors like they used too, they sit around on computers or playing video games. The lack of exercise is why they are fat

How can I legally sell food products in Maryland

How can I legally sell food products in Maryland?
I'd like to start a raw food snacks company. There are a few local health food stores that I would like to sell my products to, I'd like to sell them at the farmer's market, and I'd like to sell my products online. How can I go about this legally with proper licensing in Maryland? Thanks!

Each of those requires a different type of regulation and/or licensing (if any). This is a lot of material so ideally you want to consult with the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. But here are a few notable things to know. If you sell food to consumers, you need a Food Service Facility license. Farmer's markets are exemption to this requirement, so long as the foods you sell are from a list of approved food types which include most raw fruits and vegetables, jellies, some canned goods, and baked goods. A special license is available for home production, but your kitchen has to comply with a few regulations. Applications and more information can be found here: http://cha.maryland.gov/ofpchs/fc/index.cfm

Joan Collins says that if you eat junk, you look like junk, is this health food junk food bad for you

Joan Collins says that if you eat junk, you look like junk, is this health food junk food bad for you?
Rice cakes, whole grain, whole packet a day with hummus, or sugar free jam and peanut butter. Organic corn flakes with rice milk. Brown rice vermicelli noodles and tofu with bottled tomato pasta sauce, and fake Parmesan cheese made from soy powder. Natures Valley crunchy muesli bars. Tinned albacore tuna. Children's heath food crisps made with corn and no additives. Dried fruit and nut bars with no sugar except from dates. It all sounds good for you, but it is still processed and not whole grain, and not fresh. Can this health food junk food be health giving according to Joan Collins theory?

Don't eat too many prunes, I guess it would be horrible to look like a prune!
3 :
Rice, and corn are whole grains so I don't see anything wrong with eating those things as snacks. A person's diet should primarily be made up of home cooked meals made from legumes, grains, vegetables and nuts mixed however.

no, unless you have great genetics. most ppl fit the title "you are what you eat" if u indulge in fatty foods most of the time you will prob turn into lard. of corse it matters what u eat and how much u eat. if u feed yorself a surplus of calories then you will gain weight. if those calories are from junk food hydrogenized oils and transfats then you will gain weight at a much faster pace bc those calories are considered "empty" and can only be used for energy and not building. indulgine every once in a while is fiine, just try to keep it around once a week. that is for health reasons.

Most likely, we are being indoctrinated to "like health food".. and no matter how you make it really doesn't taste good. btw Dunkin' Donuts came up with a flatbread with egg whites and turkey sausage or veggies for an alternative to the donuts or muffins. Hope that stuff has a big shelf life because its going to be a total waste of food

Which is preferably better for your health, Italian food or Japanese food

Which is preferably better for your health, Italian food or Japanese food?

Ethnic Cuisine - 10 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :

1 :
japanese food. More vegetables, more fish, less carbs.
2 :
italian food has high carbs and somewhat high sodium but japanese food is high in sodium and msg (flavor enhancer). i prefer italian :)
3 :
Depends on what you select from either of those two cuisines, and how you prepare the food. You can make either as healthy or as unhealthy as you want it to be. For sample recipes try: http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes_menus/collections/healthy_italian_recipes http://www.japanese-food-for-health.com/index.html
4 :
Both can be very healthy if you prepare them the authentic way, from fresh produce. Both tastes great! Both cuisine included in your diet can be helpful. Just remember the golden rule, "Everything in moderation. Too much of a good thing, can be bad". = )
5 :
Both have dishes that are generally good for the health. Japanese food is heavy on fish, green leafy vegetables and seafoods. They usually end their meal with hot green tea. Italian food is heavy on tomatoes, olive oil, fresh green leafy vegetables. They usually have red wine as their drink. No wonder that the Japanese and people in the Mediterranean have some of the longest life expectancy rates in the world today.
6 :
Both are good if choose dishes wisely, I am Japanese, have Italian friend, we take turns cook, some Italian food harder digest of Japanese food however, some have too much sauce, other Italian food is fine however.
7 :
The Italians and the Japanese have been around for a long while! Watch your pasta intake when in Italy and beware of Ajinomoto (it means more flavour) when in Japan - its basically mono sodium glutamate. Otherwise, a little of what you fancy does you good!
8 :
I would say Japanese, if you stick to boiled, steamed dishes or grilled seafood, you can maintain a low calories diet very easily. There are quite some Japanese recipes don't put oil on the ingredients while cooking. A typical Japanese meal calls for steamed rice, grilled fish, a cold salad like boiled vegetables served with soy sauce or vinegar dressing and miso soup with tofu and seaweed. (except Tempura or other deep fried food, you hardly can find any dishes is oily)

japanese food

Japanese food is better only if you're eating Sashimi

I believe you have answered your own question. You need to balance out your diet with different types of foods, exercise, and be conscious of calories. The only thing I would add would be to drink more water.
2 :
If you want to create meal plans very quickly and easily, check out the meal plan generator on http://www.epic-nom.com (it's all totally free). You basically enter the number of meals you want (breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks etc), and the calories, protein, carbs and fat you want to eat, and the generator will create a plan which matches what you requested. If you don't like it, you can generate again for a different plan. The same website can be used to track calories etc
