Bake sales used to fuel school's sports teams and clubs, raising money for the kids going away games, nicer uniforms, field trips and so on. But, a new law limits the amount of sugary treats that many bake sales offer. So, starting this Fall bake sales won't be as sweet anymore.
Parents are allowed to sell candy and goodies, but it must meet the smart snack calculator requirement. If it meets all the nutritional requirements, the calories, sugar, fat and sodium, it's ok to sell that cookie. But, if it goes over well it's not allowed and the schools can be fined.
"The Smart Snacks in School Nutrition Program" took effect July 1, it's part of Michelle Obama's 2010 Healthy Hungry Free Kids Act.
Also, in the state of Texas no fried foods are allowed in schools. So, if a parent brings let's say brings a deep fried donut to a bake sale, you can't sell it. The law also states that bake sales can not take place in the same area food is being served or purchased. A table must be set up outside of the lunch area. And a bake sale can't take place until 30 minutes after school gets out.

This article is about bake sales...
Keep your kids away from TSR...She/he/it will try to convert them to smoking and lead them to addiction and an untimely death.
The sad thing is that the parents will comply.
It is none of the Federal govt’s business what states sell at school bake sales. Time to just say no.
Right. Because the rest of this country's problems have all been solved by Dear Leader the Federal Government has a ton of time on their hands to make sure we're all not over-eating on bake sale items.
Brilliant.
This thread is about bake sales.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
TSR doesn’t care if kids become addicts.
She/he/it asserts society has no role in protecting kids.
She/he/it doesn’t care if they get pregnant and have abortions.
She/he/it doesn’t care if boys are molested and thinks Gerry Sandusky was innocent.
She/he/it doesn’t care if they can’t read their diploma.
She/he/it doesn’t care if girls have their genital mutilated.
She/he/it thinks coughing up black phlegm is OK and all kids should share his/her addiction.
Remember, according to TSR, society has no role in protecting kids.
Just label the cake as “spinach cassarole”.....
Or some school district should just openly and blatantly defey it. Daring the feds to arrest them....
And Drango believes homosexuality is not a mental disorder.
This thread is NOT about bake sales, the article may be, but the thread is about the meddling of your beloved nanny state where it DOES NOT belong.
Remember, according to Gabz, society has no role in protecting kids.
Worse, Gabz put her own fetus at risk by smoking while pregnant. Perhaps even worse, she asserts she wasn’t putting her own baby at risk. Her addiction is stronger than her love for her own child.
Of course. How would the school know of our have any authority over events not on school property?
Can you sell snacks made with artificial sweeteners?
Thank goodness. It’s about time we put bad bakers of school bake sales in jail for life. How dare they? /s
Sure, they send Sheriff deputies in some cities to shut down 14 year old girls’ lemonade stands.
Well, kids and their lemonade stands are a clear menace to public safety.
These kids and their lemonade stands are not complying with regulations such as: proper handling of food items, sanitation standards, minimum wage standards, payroll withholding, workman’s comp insurance, remittance of sales tax on their sales, quarterly income tax payments on their projected profits, etc. etc.
Remember - Drango loves homosexuals and considers them normal and is also a known liar.
You sure make up a lot of crap. Can’t you make a point about anything without a bald faced lie?
this is just so much more horse shit.
Time to overthrow this federal gub mint!!!!!!!
