There is discontent amongst our nation's youth when it comes to the new school lunches, if news reports are to be believed. I thought school lunches were bad anyway, but at least they used to be bad for us! And if it's not bad for you, kids won't like it. But there's one possible way to try to make eating right seem cool.
We all know the band Foo Fighters are supporters of President Obama: they play for him, they help raise money, etc. And seeing as how they're rock stars, whatever they do will seem cool, right? (Or will it seem lame because they're my age? I'm never sure about that part.) Well, maybe they can help push the healthy food initiative by changing their name to "Food Fighters", and singing all about how they're doing battle with unhealthy foodstuffs, leaving the world safe for kids to eat healthy. And they can really sell this message by making music videos about how they're battling big yucky monsters that look like big greasy cheeseburgers that use bacon as whips and try to slime and smother them with melted cheese sauce, etc. They could be like a musical version of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, fighting for health and food purity.
Then, if this works, the government will have to try to create new rappers called things like "Healthy D" (as opposed to Heavy D), "The Fit Boys" (rather than The Fat Boys), "Low Sodium & Fresh Pepper" (instead of Salt & Pepper), "The Fresh Piece of Fruit" (rather than The Fresh Prince), Yum E. Fresh (instead of Doug E. Fresh), etc., to try to send the message out for the kids who like that music. And Lil Wayne wouldn't even have to change his name at all to help (because his name indicates he is not obese)! And Eminem can change his alter ego's name to "Slim Shapey" (from Slim Shady), to indicate that he's slim and in such good shape from exercising.
But the Democrats had better hurry up and get this youth health music scene going, or else perhaps the Republicans can fan the flame-broiled discontent of the youth school lunch revolt into winning the youth vote for the future with the promise of an all-you-can-eat buffet of future fatty foods!
