Michelle Obama, the Organic Food Crusader!

The nation’s had it’s fair share of misleading health trends, and it’s great to see things beginning to shift.

With the high fructose corn syrup commercials, it had seemed as if corporate America had once again staved off the health research and all movements towards healthy eating. But all is not lost, as there is a glimmer of hope.

Finally, after years of oversalted, oversweetened food and increasing waists, Michelle Obama has stepped up to the plate armed with an agenda to get the whole country eating right.

On her trip to a soup kitchen where she donated some food from the White House, our first lady spoke to cameras as a woman who wasn’t talking to the country as someone with an ulterior motive: she spoke plainly about health issues.

If Stephen Colbert knows what’s good for him, he should give a tip of his hat to this movement-starting organic food crusader!

Already a step ahead of the health food movement,
