The soft drink mfg's are big supporters to state rep's so they allow COKE & PEPSI to install the vending machines...another reason for homeschooling...old saying you are what you eat and drink...no soft drinks in my house...eliminate sugar and fat from diet and watch the pounds fall off, sleep improve and look and feel younger with plenty of exercise for you and the kids...that is the ticket and you can forget about the doctors' bills and prescription drugs...

I also believe that the school system makes money from soda and junk food sales. I know that my old high school did some years ago...and I can tell you that the profit margin turned from a soda machine is considerable.

I don't believe that anyone is forbidding junk food on campus. They are just saying that the school system shouldn't sell it. They're not going to be searching lunch bags, are they?

Did I read that right?

I worry about the smoking nazi's starting on the junk food... but at the same time there were no vending machines in my school days... most of the kids there were not overweight!!!
