“The rise of childhood obesity has placed the health of an entire generation at risk.”

If you think of what food is, it's the energy we use to do our daily work. I want people to know about the USDA. This is a very important department. It's not fully appreciated as such.
The food pyramid is very complicated. It doesn't give you as much info in a quick glance as the plate does.
The lack of access to proper nutrition is not only fueling obesity, it is leading to food insecurity and hunger among our children.
Somewhere between 50 to 60 percent of the food you eat has been touched by immigrant hands, and it is fair to say some of them are not here as they should be here. But if you didn't have these folks, you would be spending a lot more - three, four or five times more - for food, or we would have to import food and have all the food security risks.
