Cafeteria Food Finally Getting Diss It Deserves?
Well, apparently kids are starting to turn their noses up, as they should, to typical school cafeteria fare like sticky buns, and other nutritionless foods that typically dominate the cafeteria like pizza, brownies, tasteless casseroles and more.
Now, cafeterias are starting to offer healthier, more wholesome foods to students, as they should have when you and I were kids and going to school. Think of all the blood sugar problems you could have avoided, the after lunch crashes, the lack of concentration, due to carbed up, sugared up and fatty foods like hamburgers and hot dogs that really did nothing for you in the way of health or nutrition.
This may not only be due to increasing efforts to teach kids about making the right food choices, but also perhaps a movement in general toward organic foods, and the awareness that we can eat foods that taste great and are still healthy and nutritious. I’m sure a lot of it has to do with pure vanity too, which if you ask me, is just fine. As long as the end result is healthier, happier kids and teens, then I’m all for whatever the reasons behind a healthier cafeteria movement might be!
