With two vegetarian children in the public school system, it is disappointing to me to see how meat-centered school lunches are despite the fact that meat has known health hazards (whereas fruit and vegetables have none). I am pleased that the new USDA school lunch regulations double the servings of fruits and vegetables, and ensure that food includes more variety and better quality.
