I am sorry, I teach High School in NC and we serve pizza, hot dogs, super hamburgers, french fries, you name it, it is all fat! Every once in a while we have fruit and veggies. Any kind of milk would insure students at least get something healthy. Talk about sugar, how about the chocolate chip cookies or the cakes they have for sale. School cafeterias are in for the profit not for the health of our students.

Pizza consists of meat and vegetables (onions, peppers, cauliflower, tomatos, etc) spread over a pasta base. The "fat" is in the pasta dough, or sometimes the pepperoni. When you eat pizza you eat mostly carbohydrates ~ unless you do it the way I do. First, we make a gluten free dough. Spread that out thin because I don't get pizza often. Then, spread a package of dried tomatoes over the dough. Pour on some pepper spice. Put some provalone cheese in there too ~ to taste. Then, cover it with vegetables, meatballs, pepperoni, ham, shrimp, pineapple chunks, and finally TWO FULL CANS OF SARDINES SOAKED THOROUGHLY IN OLIVE OIL.

Now that's a pizza. I doubt schools serve that.

Hot dogs are mostly protein, particularly the ones made out of chicken or turkey. Super hamburgers do have a risk ~ the bun ~ too much carbohydrate.

Same with french fries. Entirely too many carbs in there if they've been cooked twice ~ and all the fiber is broken down. Do them at the right temperature and you'll have nearly as much oil at the end as you started with, plus you can use special blends that provide Omega 3. , hot dogs, super hamburgers, french fries,

Is Phycical Education, P.E., a mandatory class or an elective in high school these days, or even Jr. High.

Kids today sit in class all day, get mommie to write a note to get them out of P.E. and then go home and sit some more.
