[quote=Anonymous][quote]Anonymous OP you realize your kid in public school will not be required to eat the lunch, don't you? The federal lunch program wasn't set up so upper middle class moms don't have to pack a lunch for their kids.[b] It is so poor kids don't go hungry. [/b]There is no way 80% of districts are contracting with fast food companies like Pizza Hut or McDonalds. School lunches have to be served quickly to a large number of kids in a short period of time, so by definition the kids are eating "fast food" everyday. The federal lunch regulations limit the amount if sugar and fat that can be served. There are min. and max. number of calories per meal.[/quote] Then we need to serve food that they will actually eat, not tasteless, bland mush that even hungry kids throw away.[/quote]
