Pizza is Not a Vegetable

It's the $16 muffin all over again. Contrary to what you may have read or seen on late-night TV recently, Congress did not declare pizza to be a vegetable, Sarah Kliff reports at the Washington Post's Wonkblog.

I know these kinds of tales are funny, but with the image of government already at all-time lows, it would be nice if the reporting on government operations wasn't so routinely distorted.
