[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, there needs to be a junk food ban in schools. 1/3 kids are overweight and 20% are obese. Unless very drastic action is taken this public crisis will continue to get worse.[/quote] Agree. But that won’t happen. The free breakfast and lunch handed out is also junk. But the least schools could do what no food incentives in class and no birthday treats, etc. My middle schooler was routinely given king sized candy bars for winning various class games. He even got a Sonic milkshake as a prize once. Teachers would have cabinets for of small chip bags and takis to give out as incentives too. Gross. And this is in a high FARMS school where a high proportion of the kids are already overweight [/quote]
