Snopes "Claim: Michelle Obama instituted a new rule that prohibits the Navy from serving fried foods."
Just read that Michelle Obama has taken food away from members of the military services. Is this true?
"Origins: On 12 July 2015 the Navy Times reported that Navy Secretary Ray Mabus had announced a new food initiative for that branch of the armed services which would be "the foundation of a healthy lifestyle." Among the changes reported by Mabus was a new menu for sailors that lacks fried foods such as breaded chicken and french fries, has more fruits and vegetables, and replaces whole milk with skim and soy:" . . .

"In regards to the claim made above, although first Lady Michelle Obama has been a leading voice in promoting healthier eating to combat obesity, she was not mentioned in the Navy Times article or the "Go for Green" press release. Nonetheless, several people still took to Facebook to blame the First Lady for the announced changes to Navy food servings:" . . .
