I think everyone just about knows how I feel about childhood obesity and not only what parents feed their kids (remember 1 in 3 kids is considered obese, and this has been my achilles heel for SO long; even before I started researching to the degree I have been), making them more likely to die at an earlier age than you will, but also what is freaking fed to them in the school system...Damn crack is what they are serving!!!  And besides it making kids fat, its just WRONG to put that stuff in their bodies, even if they have the metabolism of 1,426 hummingbirds...

Anyway, thanks to PBF, I have stumbled across one of the most awesomesauce blogs...a teacher who originally started a blog to document eating school cafeteria food for one year...I just started reading and just bouncing around...Crazy.  Some of the entries are from guest bloggers from either around the country or even American teachers teaching abroad giving you insight into the VAST differences other cultures approach nutrition with their kids...

ps.  In that picture and so many others like it, do you notice how everything is basically the same color? 

Thats just wrong.

They definitely need some leafy greens in there! It's sad because less and less parents cook for their kids now so they continue to resort to fast foods. This continues later in life and causes a whole slew of problems!
