This is the world’s dumbest idea (at least for today).

I’m with the folks who are in the latter half of this video. There is NO REASON for kids not to have chocolate milk, especially considering that the amount of sugar in it is roughly the same as the amount in a glass of orange or apple juice. Are they going to ban orange juice and apple juice next?

Mini-Mock is a chocolate milk drinker. He’s also a really good eater of veggies and fruits. I would MUCH rather have him getting all the good vitamins/nutrients that I know he gets from chocolate milk, than choosing not to drink milk altogether. And that is what these idiotic board members FAIL TO RECOGNIZE, because they are far too busy trying to control kids than they are trying to TEACH them.

GAWD.
