Is white bread about to make a comeback on school lunch menus?
After complaints about taste and costs, the Trump administration rolled back a rule that required foods like pasta and bread be made with whole grains. The cafeteria directors who lobbied for the change say they just want greater flexibility to serve foods like white bread which are more processed and have less fiber when whole grains dont work.
In Vermont, the relaxed rule means white rice will be served with beans again. In Oregon, macaroni and cheese may return. And in South Dakota, students may notice a change with their soup.
The staff asked right away, Oh my God, can we go back to the other saltines? said Gay Anderson, a school lunch director and president of the School Nutrition Association, which represents cafeteria operators and suppliers like Dominos and Kellogg.
The rollback addresses rules on grains, milk and salt championed by former first lady Michelle Obama.

Nothing wrong with any of those foods. Just get the kids out into the schoolyard and stop worrying about lawyers, chipped teeth and skinned knees.
Hm, you’re probably right.
Of course, with elementary school kids, marketing matters too: (That's good stuff, too, IMO.)

And my childhood white bread was the store brand stuff. Washed down with a koolaid packet using twice as much water and 1/4 as much sugar.
I really liked going over to my buddy’s house for lunch. Real Wonder Bread, and High-C out of a big can!
They were rich!!
Grilled cheese, ham and chees, Reuben all so good with rye.
Fried bologna with cheese on rye or bacon and cheese on rye so good!
Once a year, those pans come out, at Thanksgiving. Three loaves of split buttertop for the table, for the kids, grandkids, and The Lord. There’s not one slice left by the time we start to clean the able. And that’s good.
Who gives a rat’s ass. If I told you what we had for lunches back in the 1950’s, you’d roll your eyeballs and.... probably puke.
You must be real fun at parties.
I hate white bread.
Tastes disgusting
Of course, put peanut butter and jelly on it and I love it.
‘’Wonder Bread builds strong bodies 12 different ways!’’
“I hate white bread.’’
“Tastes disgusting
Of course, put peanut butter and jelly on it and I love it.’’
Well then the negative experience is happily cancelled by the application of the positive. See?, simplicity.
Menu? What’s that? We didn’t have menus in The Fifties.
I used to cut quite a rug, but I’m seventy now. Only parties I attend are Geritol Parties.
White bread is racist
They must have hidden them on you.
