Rev. Gov. Strikes Again

Our Health Department has a new program, thanks to our Rev. Gov.

Governor Huckabee is launching a program to reward restaurants that offer healthy menu options and smoke-free eating.....Completely smoke-free restaurants can earn points for healthy menu options toward qualifying for a Gold Award from the Arkansas Health Department. Restaurants with no-smoking sections with separate ventilation systems can earn a Silver Award and those with no-smoking sections alone can go for a Bronze Award.

Award winners can place decals on their doors and use the Healthy Arkansas logo in their advertising. Applications will be evaluated in May and winners will be announced in August.

Told you they'd be after your lard next. There's no stopping a do-gooder when he gets on a roll. If you can tell a restaurant owner he can't allow smoking, it's just a short step to telling him what he can serve....and how he can cook it.

Just you wait and see.
