There's a reason conservatives love Fox news - it panders to their worst fears and plays to their paranoia. That's also the reason most thinking people treat Fox as the joke it is.
And now they've gone and done it again - reported a satire piece as if it were actually true, or newsworthy. Welcome to Sprinkle-ghazi-gate.

It’s often been said that instead of being a reputable source for news, Fox News instead comes closer to emulating a televised version of The Onion, the well-known satire news source.
Fox more than lived up to that billing on Tuesday morning’s episode of Fox & Friends when the hosts of the program apparently cited a conservative satire news outlet as the basis for their bizarre choice of topic, lowering the collective IQ of their viewers even further.
It all started when Fox & Friends host Clayton Morris warned the audience that they would have to “say goodbye to your favorite sprinkled doughnut.”
Morris held up a plate of palatable doughnuts and said, “They’re getting rid of doughnuts like these. Doesn’t the FDA have more important things to do than regulate sprinkles?”

That is too hilarious............all you have to do is say one of two things: government or Obama, and they fall hook, line and sinker.
The fact checkers at Fox..........wait, what am I saying? They have no fact checkers.

Obama is America's worst fears. No need to play satire. He's worse than any joke the idiots at some joke site can come up with.
Fact is, there was no satire. Obama really did ban sprinkles.
jokes on you, losers.
Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

It's about a nanny state telling folks and companies what to do, and then telling them the opposite, simply because they want to rule our lives.
Public health? My muscular buttocks !
And yet trolls here like EC simply want to vilify FOX and Breitbart, while giving our overlords in the Imperial Federal Govt a pass.
True useful idiots, on parade.

Each American consumes a mere 1.3 grams of trans fats per day. That's roughly 0.6% of our total daily calories, and no research suggests that this poses a health risk. But that's not enough to dissuade the federal nannies from regulating even the most minute aspect of our daily lives.
The irony here is that trans fats were once pushed by liberal groups such as the Center for Science in the Public Interest. This poster child for the food police in 1988 published a book titled "Saturate Fat Attack" that condemned the use of saturated and polyunsaturated fats then in vogue. Food companies soon switched to trans fats, a move for which CSPI proudly took credit.
In its Nutrition Action Newsletter on March 1, 1988, CSPI not only downplayed health risks associated with trans fats but promoted them as a health benefit. It even cited a study that found a "significant positive correlation" between trans fats in animal fats and cancer rates.
The nanny state that tells us what cars we should drive, what energy we must use and what health insurance we must buy has told mothers what they can put in their children's school lunches and even whether they can take mom-made lunches to school at all.
Slurpees and now sprinkles are a health hazard, according to those who mysteriously know what's good for us.

At least FOX News doesn't have Don Lemon, Al Sharpton or Mr Ed Shultz. They're as dumb as they come. I wonder how much logger MSNBC will last? It would make a better Home Shopping Channel.

Did Don query as to whether the AirAsia jet flew into a black hole too, as he did w/ MH370 ?
One of the saddest days in all of CNN , which use to actually report the news.

Amazingly, somebody went to the trouble to prove it is a hoax. There is no ban on sprinkles. Snopes has done the research: www.snopes.com/food/ingredient/donutsprinkles.asp
I think this calls for a video!

There is a run of conspiracy theories in Russia, of all places, that shines light on the Republicans' Sprinkocalypse. Some people could be called honest liars. They truly believe in what they say. http://standpointmag.co.uk/node/5889/full
