[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like the idea of removing hot lunches and offering non-peanut butter sandwiches on whole grain bread, fresh (in season) fruit and whole milk. That’s essentially what I send when I pack lunches to bring to school. If the cafeteria kid wants two sandwiches or two apples or two milks - fine. [/quote]

Best idea.  No kid would be without food.  Kids who have an incomplete packed lunch could grab a milk or apple if they want.  It would create way less food waste, be cheaper, and be healthier that the current variety of offering.  [/quote]

And kids who were previously only getting vegetables and hot food at school just don't get them anywhere?

They can have hot food and vegetables at home.  Majority of obese kids are the low income kids.  They are getting fed.  School’s hot lunch and celery sticks (that that aren’t eating anyway) are not making up for a nutritional deficit.  They are only adding to the processed food the kids are already getting plenty of [/quote]
