On the other hand

From: [personal profile] literally
There has at least been a growing backlash against junk food and soda and fastfood companies selling to kids in the school systems, so I'll give a lot of school systems credit for being more aware.

But the new alternative isn't entirely good either, children need fat for neural development, and finding out schools are mostly serving low-fat and non-fat products can't be any good for students either.

And there is of course, how students are blamed for their fatness, made to weigh themselves on scales in front of other students, and other humiliating procedures. I'm still bitter about a lot of bullying I went through for years in school (and it's not about weight), I can't even imagine how bad it is for students now who are overweight, with the school system's thumbs up.
