I think this is a good idea. That is the first time in a long time I have thought "wow, the state is doing something useful with my tax dollars"

I love this policy. If it's free then no-one brings their own, and no-one is looked down at.

BUT... I checked the menu of a school where I used to live...

Pizza, hot dogs, fries... We can make the most delicious vegetables, roasted, ...

And they get carbs. Nutrition taken from nature decomposed in its elemental components put back together for the perfect addictive meal...

Interesting, most places I've seen are increasing the food restrictions, including in food brought from home. This is probably something you can address with your district if your state doesn't already some healthy school food law.

How on earth do they have the right to make rules about what food kids bring from home?

My local district restricts what a kid can bring in for thier personal snack during classroom snack time. It has specific types of approved food listed. In some cases, they even restrict what brand of food it is.
