I think it's a good idea. Child obesity is not a good thing and we do not need to contribute. Can't control crap kids eat at home. But every little bit helps.

Actually agree here. frick sugar substitutes.
Why does any kid need donuts and muffins before school? If taxpayers are paying for it, it should be healthy foods every day.

Let's rid these meals of preservatives and seed oils next.

Is there really a “Sugar Association”?

Next step is to start eliminating sugar/trash from food stamp eligibility and other tax funded food sources. Stop using tax dollars to make everyone fat and further destroy our hospital system, health insurance system, etc.

As if people would be somehow "deficient" if they just ate a regular diet absent of added sugars.

I’m a teacher. School meals are heavy calories and massive amounts of carbs. It’s terrible
