[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, are you at LAA? I don’t understand why they don’t use Good Food catering company like everyone else. Parents rave about LAA but the things that count as a vegetable on their lunch menu (corn, Lima beans, iceberg lettuce) leave a bit to be desired. I didn’t even look at the snacks.[/quote]

My friend’s son is at LAA. Her eldest went there too and is now in kindergarten. She did once mention to me how she wishes they used the Good Food Company like most of the area schools but seems happy with the school otherwise.[/quote]

Good Food also serves corn, lima beans and iceberg lettuce. (Have we seriously gotten to the point where we complain about corn, lima beans and iceberg lettuce?)[/quote]

Our daycare uses the Good Food Company. They definitely serve corn and lima beans so I'm not sure what PP is talking about. Also, corn and Lima beans are super healthy and have a lot of fiber. They aren't fancy vegetables or trendy but that doesn't mean they are not healthy!  Putting all that aside, I've been very impressed by the menu at Good Food Company. They serve whole fruits every day (as opposed to the canned fruits our previous daycare served) and everything is whole grain. The lunch is high in vegetables and there is a lot of variety. I also haven't noticed anything with added sugar on the menu. Not everything can be organic and fancy but the kids are getting a good quality meal and that's all that matters![/quote]
