"What's for lunch?"
Many kids have different opinion about school lunch. Children say school lunch is healthy and delicious. On the other hand, many kids believe it is unhealthy. New York City Public School is working hard to turn school lunch healthy.
"The government is trying to make our school lunch healthy", said a mother that is 34 years old. School lunch needs more fruits, veggies, and whole grain. They are lowering the calories of the lunches. In my school they offer whole wheat bread.
A 13 years old boy said, "today overweight chilidren outnumber undernourished childern." The government wants veggies and more whole grains. They tryed updating the food pyramid so it can effect healthy eating habits. Overweighted childern need to eat whole grain so they can lose weight.
Kids, such as myself should be consuming the right amount of food."Lunch should be no more than 650 to 850 calories", said a boy on the bus. Consuming this amount they would not offered us. "The government wants kidsnto be offered 9 to 13 serving of grains for lunch", said a uncle in Canda. This will help school lunch become very healthy and even keep kids healthy.
