pizza in the morning, pizza in the evening, pizza at supper time???

For some reason, this pizza propaganda song came in my head this morning as I was getting ready for work. A few years ago this commercial, along with the product (bagel bites) was very popular...and until now I thought it was cute and catchy commercial selling a semi-wholesome snack kids love...but now I see the light! It's commercials like this that contribute to America's obesity problem!!! OMG. Just think about it. "Pizza in the morning, pizza in the evening, pizza at supper time...when pizza's on a BAGEL you can have pizza anytime." Now. Does that even make sense? Didn't think so. Not only does that STUPID song get on your nerves after the 4th loop in your head...it's a pretty ridiculous concept. I just went to the bagel bites website to look at the nutritional content of these so called "bagel bites" http://www.bagelbites.com/nutrition.aspx
I was less than impressed. Granted, there are a few less calories in bagel bites IF you only eat 4. Four bagel bites, at least 3 times a day and maybe 3 or more for snacks...in addition to all of the other food kids eat, is actually a recipe for obesity. Mom's, don't believe the hype! Fruits, veggies, water and rest is what kids need!!! Not pizza every 10 minutes. It's this laxed and mediocre attitude about health and nutrition that makes it hard for kids to have bounderies as far as their stomaches or anything else is concerned! C'mon bagel bites!

OMG and then they make them so tiny and cute so you won't feel like a total fatty for eating 500 of them! :( i kind of want some now, lol!

We don't know each other, but I had the same epiphany last night as I was explaining the commercial song to someone in Brazil. (I found you trying to find the video to send to the person haha). I used to laugh about the song but when you think about it, it is pretty sick...
