Last week, First Lady Michelle Obama challenged grocery companies to reorganize their products and the way they are promoted to kids. She talked about her "Let's Move" initiative with Newsweek's Jon Meacham at the magazine's Executive Forum in Washington.

She said that at the federal level, we can stress and notify. For instance, we can work with food producers to have superior package labeling. We can attempt to get more groceries in underserved regions. We can ensure that we pass rules, which gets us a strong nutrition-authorization act so that we receive superior food in our schools.

Regarding a warning label on Twinkies or Froot Loops, she said that Twinkie is not a cigarette. It's just that parents need to be informed about what's in the Twinkie and in what amount can it be taken. There's nothing wrong in having snacks and chips. It's just that we need to exercise more. Parents should be abreast of the ingredients so that they can judge what the children should have and that's all that matters.

She added that it is up to the consumers to change the demand. The grocery makers will produce what we want. We don't require the warning labels. Common sense and complete information is all that we need.
