Pizza Is A Vegetable - Larry Mendte

[happyblackie]

Maybe congress should be working on our debt crisis instead of pointlessly classifying junk food......

Try to learn from Japanese "Syoku Iku" teaching started from 1903. Japanese public school system from Kindergarten and at home teach about foods such as what to eat, how to prepare/use knife&cooking tools and respect people produce foods.

Before graduating primary school, all children know how to cook healthy meals by themselves.

School lunches are also prepared guidance of school nutritionist. Monthly menu, ingredients and calorie tables are sent to parents beginning of the month.

[sketchbookessay]

A tomato is a fruit in the biological sense, yes. But the term "vegetable" is a culinary term. It all depends on the chef whether or not a tomato is a fruit or vegetable. However, pizza should NOT be considered a vegetable. That's like saying jelly doughnuts are a fruit.

[nilsen93]

Americans...

[pumpuppthevolume]

pizza is a vegetable... brought to you by the same people who made the SOPA bill

[laalex98]

Everyone hates us americans (btw my parents are immigrants like most americans anyway) because of our retarded ass fucking politicians. other than that...the american people are aware of that stupid government that needs to gtfo asap

[MsNekokitty]

America, This is why everyone else hates you.

[123arianagrandefan]

A TOMATO IS A FRUIT

[rabbitpower100]

I know this is bad. But all I want now is to eat that pizza.

[UltimateRaditzLover]

WHAT?!?!?!?!

[Aqwert76]

Why not? Now we can eat as much pizza as we want without our parents complaining because pizza is a vegetable!

[TheHy17]

Pizza is a vegetable. Gravity is a drink. Wood is a liquid.

[TheFrenchDark]

Pizza a vegetable?

United States is normal, coming soon the BigMac vegetables...

[GMagana92]

New York or New Jersey? Where else do people fold their pizzas, also :( just got hungry now

[supersinger667]

WTF?!!?! pizza is not nor will ever be a damn Vegetable!!!! it's junk food, fuck I'm a Vegan and I'm not going to eat that shit. I love pizza and all but fuck I am not going to substitute that shit for my Corn and potato's, actual potato's not french fries, I eat healthy and that is not fucking healthy.

[dBolotok]

@supersinger667 tell that to the American dumbasses lol

[mrplow8]

It's not the government's job to tell people how they should or shouldn't eat. Parents should be the ones responsible for their children's diets, and the Obamas should go fuck themselves.

[ironmantis25]

is anybody going to finish that pizza?

[SuperDuperSentinel]

Just finished watering my pizza plant.

[Aukaz88]

Kid: Dad guess what! I've had FIVE pizzas today!

Dad: Well done son! Your going to grow up big and strong if you eat your 5 a day.

:|

[Whalelaydee]

this is why I am moving when I turn 18.

[veldross1]

Recognizes obesity problem

Reclassifies pizza as vegetable. 

[YourEternalFriend]

America = the dumbest, Jew-controlled country in the world.

[neroter1]

only in America u always make me laugh

[norfsk]

It's a great plan. Now they can keep eating pizza and they'll get thin instead of fat! Oh wait.

[1169Timothy]

@norfsk lololol, that needs to get top comment!

[laalex98]

Good Knowledge

[bliz0123]

im in the 6th grade and after i heard the news i lost all hope in my government each night i die a little inside and i feel scared for what stupid thing my country will do next

[DiversePersona]

@bliz0123

You should learn how to type first and your government has been working against since 1776, moron.

[940825151]

@DiversePersona And you should learn some grammar then. Does it matter if he cant spell, HE IS RIGHT. Stop trolling on his spelling, he makes a valid point. He goes in 6th grade and he cares, you need more people like him in your country. USA has really been going downhill since the Bush goverment, even tought Obama is working his ass of to fix your sorry excuse for a country.

[DiversePersona]

@940825151

You can not spell, nor use grammar correctly either, so I've made my point. Go back to high school and finish.

[OMGitsREAPER]

@thenamedone1 I lol'd.

[thenamedone1]

i used to eat salads, but then i took an arrow to the knee

[Lunarbell1]

Dear people of America, I hope you understand why foreigners look down on your country. But seriously, calling pizza a vegetable is just crazy, a vegetable is something that grow out of itself in a natural way. SERIOUSLY YOU'RE BEGGING FOR IT!

[imfrombundy]

bravo america

[4000cutter1]

seriously... just, seriously?

[chronDiggity]

I got some veggies for lunch then LMFAO

[Jobbeybob]

I find it really upsetting that Americans always complain about how stupid their governments are, while other countries dictators kill many of their own people and steal their donated money and food.

[XxNeoPrincexX]

Wait, so two companies decide to become filthy rich in turn of everyone become fat...

EVERYONE, GET YOUR PASSPORTS, WERE MOVING TO CANADA,

[z33z11]

But tomato is a fruit...

[Redeye1524]

SINCE WHEN DID THE TOMATO BECOME A VEGETABLE?

If anything it makes pizza a fruit...yeah pizza is a ripened plant ovary

[Haloskulls117]

END CHILDHOOD OBESITY! make pizza a vegtable, the makes sense

[Thewrathofpaul]

The food pyramid is BS anyways. you can eat loads of fruits and vegies and get no vitamin K if you aren't eating the right ones. Go vegan, and use a program to track how many of which nutrients you're getting.

[itsDeZsa]

I wish I didn't live in the US.

[Ghaledon]

@Mendte President Obama is retarded and is doing a good job in screwing our country over. However, I truly appreciate his wife's efforts to improve the health of America.

The flaw in Congress isn't any particular political party, the flaw is its excessive use of scapegoats such as blaming a particular political party rather than taking responsibility, owning up to their mistakes, and fixing them.

You wanna play the blame game? I say it's YOUR fault! Prove me wrong.

[muffinmanzz]

if i eat my "vegetables" every day i should be healthy right?

[crapadotol]

THIS IS WHY AMERICA TO OTHER COUNTRIES IS THE DUMB ASS!!!

[Ihatebanjos]

Some faith in humanity has been restored

[y2kblackout]

Let me explain to you how this works: you see, the corporations finance Congress, and then Congress goes out... and the corporations sit there in their... in their corporation buildings, and... and, and see, they're all corporation-y... and they make money.

[timdassss]

aren't tomato's fruit?

[Iwuzhere321]

@timdassss Yes

Here's the math:

Tomatoes = Fruit

Pizza = Cheese, Grease, Sauce, and Bread

Tomato +Pizza = Vegetable

[timdassss]

@Iwuzhere321 So much math and science It has to be a Vegetable!

[CPXxstreme]

Okay 2012 can happen now.... I don't really care anymore.

[beatrockas]

i bet he spat out the pizza at the end

[Eddyisrich403]

THEY FUCKING BANNED SALT FROM MY SCHOOL! MOTHERFUCKER'S!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nykage]

@Eddyisrich403 Cant u just bring your own lunch?...

[Eddyisrich403]

@nykage no

[ExImperialDragon]

Back when I was a kid, tomatoes were vegetables, Pluto was a planet, indigo was part of the rainbow and everyone knew that pizza was greasy and unhealthy.

Apparently, all of this is the exact opposite now. The. Fuck.

[FiftyCalHeadshot]

next idea from congress

axe deo = a bath

[BattleWarPath]

All this is to distract us from the SOPA bill.

[PHXie]

It is obvious to me that the food industry and pharmaceutical industry are scratching each other's backs. Let's also not forget about the agricultural and chemical industries.... There is big money in slowly killing people. And the government lets them get away with it because they get a share of the pie too.

[lovyroxy]

Huh? Is tomato really a fruit?

[ToeInspector]

@lovyroxy rofl

[MegaTom1423]

@lovyroxy Yes it is. I learned that in biology, it is backed by SCIENCE.

[Flamehawk1]

america now has just put it out there they can't be arsed trying to lose weight so they said fuck it make it a vegetable ;D

[PiranhaPlaza]

I sense some virus has infected our world's current governments.

It's called "Retarded".

[Ron900123]

@PiranhaPlaza its Retarted

[PiranhaPlaza]

@Ron900123 ...

[940825151]

@PiranhaPlaza No, it's called Greed. I wonder why the church dont do anything about it. They should stop bitching about muslims and fix all the mortal sins that have infected USA. I'm not religious or anything, but thats what i would do.

[Aztex89]

@PiranhaPlaza uhm Worlds goverment? or do you mean United States of America`S Goverment? As i know EU ain`t changing Fast food pizza into a fruit. o.O

[fruitblood]

I'm OK with this.

[MCAMVP]

Does this mean i can finally grow my fast-food trees and harvest legitimately?

[defton24]

JERICHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[29Frenchie]

Mendte is Fucking Brilliant!

[maggitPL]

Wow, reality turned out to be more absurd than Onion News...

[thatsmahboi1337]

Well tomato is a fruit soooooooo

[SoloWing808]

And pepper spray is a food additive according to Fox News.

[FluxyFilm]

WELCOME TO AMERICA!

fml.

[Fogell420]

congress doesn't have any constitutional authority to 'declare' anything anything. nor does the government have the power to regulate food. but scrap the consitution, this country is going downhill. thanks corrupt FUCKERS! hopefully the teen generation will take over and do a better job

[milackk7]

Annoying maybe, but the fact still remains that the U.S. Congress is corrupt and idiotic. The People DO have a say, yet remain apathetic and less demanding in their voting choices and options - get the riff-raff politicians OUT! And yes, many countries have corrupt governments...but only the U.S. boasts and brags about being the greatest country in the world - and that's absolute BUll$#IT!

[GreyEarlTea]

@milackk7 Your last statement has no backup, in my opinion. That's just a stereotype.

[pre76dator]

this all seems like an awsome dream i dont wanna wake up from

[GreyEarlTea]

It's kind of annoying to see some of the comments here. People are just accusing Americans of being complete idiots. The People themselves know this is Shit. They have no say. This is all Congress. Most of the negative comments are from people in different countries. None of you should talk.. Everyone's country is corrupt in some way.

[Grlihi]

Hey vegan can eat Pizza now !

stupid congress

[ap2152002]

Next time i go to a restaurant with my family i'll go out with you Larry.

[meggeh56678]

NO.

[Filo127]

hahaha

and you americans wonder why europeans make fun of you

[idleoffury]

@Filo127 umm... It's not like we like the idea ether, congress is getting pretty fucked up right now so don't think that the US in general agree to this too.

[AlPacinoTR09]

@idleoffury agree, we can't controll it.. so revolt?

[idleoffury]

@AlPacinoTR09 Then we would be communists... We have no control over this issue.

[AlPacinoTR09]

@idleoffury No! why communists? we can make a REAL democratic country ruled by voters..

Not a country ruled by money and companys

I mean come on pizza a vegetable? sheesh

Do we have PIZZAPLANT or something?

[idleoffury]

@AlPacinoTR09 Yeah I know what you mean... Why won't they just think about us instead of our money? We are considered the most obese country on the globe because Corporate America keeps cramming a bunch of crap into our diets just to squeeze out as much money from us as possible. Is a cheese burger now considered a veggie? It has wheat, meat, cheese, veggies and ketchup, basically pizza and burgers have the same shit in it. This kind of bullshit makes me wanna put a 12-gauge to my head.

[henryfunes1]

2:11 nope chuck testa

[MsAlternativexxx]

... For. Fuck. Sake.

How deeper in the hole of stupidity can you dig?!

[Kurd94oslo]

who said americans are fat? they all eat vegetables.

[p90xsteroids]

republican/tea bagger: hear my words or hear my gun!

me: if you dont stop being stupid im going to turn the gun on your head and do the world a favor

[1sillybanana]

This is so funny. Holy shit I'm laughing so hard. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK US CONGRESS. I'll be chilling in Canada where things aren't quite as retarded.

[jhoney6754]

it show whats whats wrong with america

[JCLYM]

You are awesome;)

[SunnySide247]

.

CAN I SUE THE GOVERNMENT WHEN MY CHILDS ARTERIES ARE JAMMED WITH CHEESE FROM ALL THE HEALTHY "VEGETABLES" THAT CONGRESS RECOMMEND MY CHILD EAT?

.

STUPID FUCKING AMERICAN LEADER-SHIP/SHIT

.

NO WONDER THE PLANET'S A FCKING MESS. SUPER POWER OF SUPER IDIOTS.

.

[marasu66]

Why, just the other day, I dug up some fresh pizza from my garden.

[theLleeon]

A TOMATO IS A FRUIT.

[trapedd]

Fuck this government, and people are asking for more government?

[FrostbitePWD]

Fucking stupid americans... Seriously... What...the...fuck...

[TheHorseLady1212]

@FrostbitePWD I know. I'm a little appalled with us, as well!

[Nerdylation]

this isn't new, Reagan wanted to make Ketchup a vegetable.

[CreepShow1334]

Another underlying issue here that seems to be being ignored... It's not the government's place to tell us what we and our children are allowed to eat in the first place.

[gev2323]

@CreepShow1334 We shouldn't HAVE to tell people what to feed their kids but it's becoming a problem when people think pizza is a vegetable. This stupidity is going to lead the newest generations of Americans straight to their jumbo sized graves at 35.

[CreepShow1334]

@gev2323 .... People are only going to think pizza is a vegetable BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT is classifying it as one, that has nothing to do with the obesity problem being from the citizens' stupidity. So your response to my comment makes no sense.

[Darkrai42]

I don't understand our country anymore. There used to be a noticeable (flimsy as it were) reason, and now...logic's corpse is lying at the door of Capitol Hill.

[mrZohrman]

same thing happened, to the same uproar, in 1982. Learning, anyone?

[Hiro9921]

I am deeply angered by this, and hungry for pizza now.

[blueblue1891]

The Emperor has awesome clothes...

[Kerrbear1234567890]

Fries = Potatoes = Vegetables

General knowledge, to begin with

[jlo101310]

This is disgusting. 

[anarchist344]

Love how he thinks there is some difference between the parties. Or the branches. After all, look who Obama made his agriculture guy, a monsanto fan (Tom Vlasick ( i think that's how it's spelled) who used to log more hours on Monsanto's jet than Monsanto did. Americans will only have a chance when they get rid of the government. Since that will require a pair of balls, I don't see it happening any time soon.

[johananas]

Guess many in the restaurant is wondering, why he is sitting there talking to himself. slowpoke.jpg

[PathocracyNow]

Oh man, you know psychopaths are in charge when...

[qwondoflex]

If pizza is a vegetable, an aardvark is a...SENATOR

[kiddykat804]

@qwondoflex well arthur is pretty smart lol

and for the love of god, google it if you don't know the ref haha

[assdoooouuutttt]

LOL A TOMATO IS A FRUIT

oh shit, this is funnier than I thought

[ramraker]

Congress is House of Stupidity.

[DianeDi]

@ramraker Let's not forget corrupt and bought off.  They are setting up the future generations as steady customers to Big Pharma. Oh, good old Big Pharma, we are worthless to them healthy or dead.

[LINDSAYLIKEOMG]

I really hope this convinces parents to send their kids to school with a sack lunch of healthy things they put together themselves...

[MyLovely38]

This is ridiculous!!! America is slowly killing our youth,no way im teaching my kids this crap!

[azn27yo]

I like milk

[gallademan12]

Oooh the awkward parent to child conversation that will come out of this.
