Agreed but since school lunches are the best meal a whole lot of kids get, sometimes the only meal, it needs to be a good well balanced meal. The government should be pushing PE, etc more then cutting what they eat. Get them active, not starve them.
I agree with getting rid of vending machines full of junk food but not this and from what I can see, she has no room to talk.
I agree about the parents but it is a fact of life in the US. Report just the other day about massive fraud in the foodstamps program and look up hunger in the US. The war on poverty has been a huge waste of many billions of dollars and there are millions of hungry kids in this country. Look at the pictures in the piece I linked, do those look filling or healthy to you?
Except now the schools are throwing away the sack lunches parents send because it does not meet government guidelines.
I can't donate veggi's to the local John 3:16 mission from my garden either. I can kind of understand it. Who knows that chemical were sprayed on them is why they don't accept them. Its a food issue, so I guess the 60 some I picked today, will go to the trash.
She is only 7 years younger than you Rick, AND she is not diabetic.
Incorporate PE back into schools. Eliminate vending machines. (schools don't want to do that - $$$)
Nutritious school lunches. It'll turn around.
Sad thing is, those things won't be implemented.
