At the moment, lunches for students in elementary, middle (or junior high), and high school have extremely unhealthy and, as a result, unappetizing lunches. The public school cafeteria lunches in America so unhealthy that the meat is worse than McDonald's burger meat. This is because the restrictions for cafeteria meat are not as strict as those of McDonald's meat. Students deserve to eat healthy lunches at school in order to fuel them throughout the day, especially those that do not have the resources to purchase or make their own lunches. (P.S. please select N/A for any of the options in this petition that you would not like to make public)
We call on the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) to strengthen restrictions and create healthier meals for public school cafeterias. We request healthy packaged meals with grains, vegetables/fruits, and protein as well as meal options for those with dietary restrictions (i.e. vegetarian, lactose intolerant, vegan, etc.). This should also include optional items such as dairy, juices, etc.
