You Freepers shouldn't complain about Moo Shell ... the beautiful, humble, well-traveled and accomplished dietician.

Damn, no place for comments.

I was going to recommend that they upgrade their waste disposal contract, as they will soon have a lot more food waste to dispose of.

Subsidize anything and you will get more of it. The US subsidizes failure and poverty with such programs.

Required to take a fruit or vegetable “whether they eat it or not”.

There is your key phrase.

Follow the money.

Who is making the money with this policy?

Good grief. This is nothing new, as school cafeterias in previous years have been required to put certain things on every student’s tray, whether the student wants it, or not.
It’s alway resulted in a lot of fruit being wasted, and a good bit of milk, too.

Only those “out of the loop” will find this to be new “news.”

So they are going to limit portions to malnourished kids and teenagers?

swell. less rice and beans today kids. and yes that tofu burger has shrunk since last year. Enjoy!

And what does it teach a kid to say “take this vegetable or fruit whether you are going to eat it or not”

Hope they have a good contract with a local pig farmer because a lot of white skim milk and fresh produce is going to end up in the trash

when is this adminitration going to admit that a lot of the obesity is due to poverty and sloth, and their food is purchased with food stamsp and EBT cards that buy junk food

Make ebt cards unable to purchase junk food, period.

“whether they are going to eat it or not.”

That's wasteful. What we need to do is hire additional school staff to make sure that the students eat it required foods. If they don't, send their parents to the camps and put the children into foster care.
