They know *what* the students are tossing, so this must be to discover *which* students are doing the tossing. That way they can either control and intimidate through fear, or collect fines for the inevitable non-compliance. The fines will be justified by claiming that they will fund further "healthy eating" programs... for the children.

The hammer will really come down after the carrot-tossers figure out how to dispose of the vegetables by other means. I suspect that clogged toilets are going to become commonplace in this school. Expect the sewer of the spiritual realm to manifest on the physical plane.
Now they force the students to take the vegetables. The next step is to force students to eat them. Even Orwell never imagined this.
