[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now that school lunch/breakfast are available to anyone, is there any chance for a national dialogue on improving the nutrition of school feeding programs? I'm completely baffled by parents posting on Facebook how nutritious the food is. It is wonderful the meals include milk and fresh fruit and some vegetables, but the sugar cereal and prepackaged muffins leave me baffled. How is that nutritious? Obviously some food is better than no food if it is a choice between sugar packed "food" and going hungry, but can't we do better as a society, especially for kids who aren't getting fed at home? [/quote] One of the parents brought this topic up during a PTA meeting last year. The ES principal and the PTA president seemed unwilling to do anything about it. They actually seemed annoyed. At the end of the meeting the PTA president basically said these meeting are supposed to discuss $$$.[/quote]
