“Feeding Young Minds”

http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2010-12-02-house-school-lunches_N.htm

Congress voted Thursday to expand free and reduced-price lunch programs to widen eligibility for more schoolchildren across the country. This is terrible news for bullies, for whom lunch money is strictly a cash business.

This move is not a surprise from Congress, since its members typically expect a free lunch.

The bill is also meant to improve nutrition standards for school lunches. According to new rules, a serving of “green vegetables” can no longer refer to moldy tater tots.
