WEST HARTFORD ——

The beef is there, but where's the pickle?

That's the question students at Hall High School have been asking on hamburger day in the cafeteria since the food services department made menu changes to meet new school lunch rules from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Students are "outraged over the removal of pickles and salt from the cafeteria at Hall to meet nutrition guidelines," student representative Kendall Teare told the school board last week.

They are going to lose business...the only way the kids can fight back, is to boycott the cafeteria.

There are many private schools that the students can attend. I can see the marketing from the competition....**Our school cafeteria serves pickles on our burgers.***

Welcome to Bloomberg High.

Nanny State PING!

It will take decades to unwind this crap.

Kids would probably get suspended for bringing food contraband to the school.

Thanks for the ping!

Losing salt and pickles IS losing freedom, in a way these students can understand.

Yes and when these students become adults they will go the other way and try to FORCE people to eat pickles and salt. Of course it won't be pickles and salt but you get my drift. MYOB will not be learned.
