This. Our center daycare follows the USDA regiment and I think the food is pretty varied and healthier than I would expect, given the complaints some of the parents made at a parent meeting. I normally get there at snack time and they almost always have fruit and veggies, along with crackers. We get a menu and the breakfast and lunch always sounds pretty good. There's always a fruit or veggie. Sometimes the fruit was from a frozen source and other times its fresh, or those fruit cups where its in juice, not syrup.

Even with that, some parents send food from home which is "healthier", but I see veggie chips and apple sauce, and it doesn't look much better than what's offered. I guess my point is, if you don't like it, provide your own food, but know that as your child gets older, it will be harder to keep them from eating the things you don't like, even when the teachers work very hard.[/quote]
