Apparently processed cheese is a health food.
Apparently, there is a massive campaign in America to get kids eating healthily. A good thing, on the face of it.
The campaign has just awarded it’s first “Kids Eat Right” label.
You would think that in a campaign to get Kids to eat healthily, they’d award to some sort of healthy food. Nope. They’ve awarded it to Kraft Singles processed cheese slices. The campaign is organised by an organisation that is sponsored by Kraft.

Interestingly, the organisation that awarded the label says
Quote:

it does not constitute any endorsement or nutritional seal of approval by the Academy, its Foundation or Kids Eat Right. The Academy Foundation does not endorse any products, brands or services.

This, of course, begs the question that if the label "does not constitute any endorsement or nutritional seal of approval by the Academy, its Foundation or Kids Eat Right", what is the actual point of it? To look pretty?

It'll only be a health food when it's a added to a meat pattie with salad and squished between 2 halves of a bun.

Re: Apparently processed cheese is a health food.
Well, this is the same country that classes school lunch frozen pizza as a vegetable, isn't it?

Re: Apparently processed cheese is a health food.
This might sound crazy. but we live for money. we wake up everyday solely to make and spend money.
we don't do anything for fun, kindness or anything unless there's money to be made.
of course it's about money.

Speak for yourself, Gary - I (and I am sure many others) do lots of things just to help others, not for any monetary recompense.

Re: Apparently processed cheese is a health food.
Processed cheese is healthy - the less of it you eat the healthier it is...
