- dTal 7y agoNothing in particular about putting tomato sauce on pizza should make it less nutritious. Legislation should be targeting nutritional facts, not presentation. The article you link shows that nutritionally speaking, it wasn't an unreasonable ruling.
- monadic2 7y agoHonestly this doesn’t bother me much, tomato sauce is going to be more nutritional than the raw tomatoes that went into it. It’s just not roughage.
- swebs 7y agoWow did you even read the title of the article you posted? Here it is: >No, Congress did not declare pizza a vegetable Congress decided that 1/8th of a cup of tomato puree counts as a SERVING of vegetables. Not A vegetable. You're just intentionally saying something stupid in order to attempt to project that stupidity on someone else.
- gumby 7y agoActually ovi256 explicitly did refer to the sauce.
