TAKE THE QUIZ!! WHAT THE USDA THINKS YOUR KIDS SHOULD BE EATING:

It defies comprehension how off the mark school nutrition is in 2010. School cafeteria programs MUST MAKE A PROFIT or they get SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. How do they make a profit? When an orange is so expensive that it can be included in the menu only 2 times per week, the tater tots and chicken poppers are the real tried and true money-makers. And THAT is what school meals are all about. At least the kids have time to sit and eat....NOT. LUNCH for many students consists of a 20 minute period, over half of which is standing on line waiting to GET THE FOOD! And who doesn't love wolfing down their food in 3-5 minutes?
Take the quiz and see for yourself how badly in need of a complete overhaul the system is! -Clean Food Earth Woman
