[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid goes to GDS and desserts are banned. I doubt they are giving out Oreos but if so it’s once a week. If you are happy at your school I wouldn’t leave over snack. One bag of goldfish just isn’t that big of a deal. The lunch menu has so many healthy options.[/quote]

My kid doesn't like sweet "desserts", but he will eat chips all day if you let him... That doesn't mean he is "healthier" if I let that happen... junk food doesn't need to look like it came from a pastry shop to be unhealthy and addictive...[/quote]

But they won’t let him eat chips all day is the whole point. It’s one serving passed out. If he’s super hungry at lunch there are healthy options. I can’t believe that people care this much about snack ha.[/quote]

The lunches are not that healthy. Plenty of pasta, chicken nuggets, pizza, grilled cheese, burgers, with a vegetable on the side, and often sides like potatoes or garlic bread. Do you think if the kindergartener is extra hungry they’re going for 2nds on broccoli? And it’s not one snack a day, many days it’s 2 times and 3 if they stay for aftercare, plus all the treats parents bring in for birthdays etc.

Sorry, you might care if you’ve lost family to obesity related illnesses. Healthy eating habits start young.[/quote]
