[quote=Anonymous]There are so many structural problems with the food issue. Most schools were not built to have kitchen or storage space for fresh food. Plus the school lunch reimbursement program is so onerous it’s almost impossible to meet requirements without going through a big supplier that does it for you. The Obama reforms which were supposed to make it healthier actually made it worse as there are more rules so harder to find actually healthy food that kids will actually eat. The kids would probably all do better with turkey and cheese on whole wheat with a fruit — but that doesn’t meet the federal lunch rules which require certain colors of vegetables etc., so you end up with those weird mish mash dishes.
