Huckleberry Coulis, Goat Cheese Coming to U.S. Nat'l Parks: 'This is About Choice'

Huckleberry Coulis, Goat Cheese Coming to U.S. Nat'l Parks: 'This is About Choice' | CNS News

(CNSNews.com) - How about some goat cheese with huckleberry coulis and organic watercress after you've worked up an appetite by hiking in a national park? Or maybe some juniper-smoked bison with arugula?

That's okay you wont be able to buy 30 oz cokes or Slurpys to wash down those wieners anyway. Or was it the wieners who made the new rules? You have to ask for salt to rub in your wounds too.

Just a matter of time until alcohol and tobacco are on their hit list.

They'll have to change all the CG's to Meine Kampf.

I'll still carry what I want in my ice chest and hidey holes.
If they don't like that, I'll camp in my back yard.

I don't see how goat cheese, smoked bison, and chicken breast is a "healthier choice". Maybe they should get their facts straight before they spend a few million on another "awareness" campaign. I am personally fine with eating 30 bananas a day, or a pound of salad greens, but if somebody wants to have a porterhouse with a bacon-loaded potato, have at it. The fat you eat is the fat you wear. Just don't ask me to pay for your bypass surgery and cancer treatments.

Jarvis said the changes don't mean park visitors must eat healthy food. Traditional fare such as hot dogs and chicken tenders will still be available from food vendors who already sell those items.

The vendors only have to offer additional food choices. I'm sure that Ball Park Franks aren't going away.

Concessionaires who renew their contracts with the government will be required to include at least two “healthy” options

Two healthy options among everything else: this *probably* won't trigger the apocalypse.
