Don't people ALWAYS impose their rules and lifestyles on their children, regardless of what that lifestyle might be? I find it hard to believe that you consider her feeding her kids good real unprocessed food more douchy than some white trash mom who feeds her kids nothing but Mcdonalds and candy.

Saying "no, the kids will stay with me and eat what I say they eat" is fine. Saying "they should eat a vegetarian diet all the time" is fine.
However, many of us find fault when these factors are not only combined, but made more extreme. Not only is it vegetarian, but 100.00% macrobiotic, 0.00% processed, etc. And then all the other rules. And then applying them all the time. And then specifically applying them to when other people are taking care of the kids. And not just any people, but their other parent. Eventually it adds up.
It's not as though the thread would be jumping on Madonna if she said "oh, by the way, Guy, here's what the boys are used to and here are some things I don't want them to do." (Even if the food rules were exactly the same.)
