[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I assume it is all money and the big companies lobby for standards they can profit on, then just barely meet standards with over-processed food to turn a profit. It is just a shame, there are places that consider illustrating healthy, nutritious diets by modelling that where children learn so many other things a priority. It is insane to me how my kid can go straight from a lesson on healthy diet to their cafeteria for “baked cheese sticks” with lowfat chocolate milk, corn and canned fruit. Seriously look at the photo of those “baked cheese sticks”.[/quote] Is the USDA setting standards and then setting quality expectations through their reimbursement rates. The rate is $3.51 for free meals, and $3.11 for reduced price meals. Good luck getting anything anyone on this thread would consider quality for those prices. [/quote]
