The hits keep on coming.

Also, isn't ironic that cost is up on healthier foods.

Quote:
“Now [lunch] is worse-tasting, smaller-sized and higher-priced,” a Wisconsin high school senior told the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, echoing some of the problems of government these days. Hungry Minnesota students are “scavenging the lunchrooms after lunch,” and Kansas students are bringing lunch to school in droves and angrily writing state representatives.

Leftists are all about social activism for the schoolyard, but it’s not likely they’ll appreciate this rebellion.

The new rules have also instigated waves of parental protests since 2011, when school districts first began implementing mandated cost increases and ingredient rationing. The families who do pay for school lunches balked at paying more for menus that are ill-suited to individual needs and depend on subsidy increases neither states nor the federal government can afford..
