Why School Lunches?

School lunches are one of the most important parts of a child's school day. It helps set the foundation for future food choices. Having unhealthy foods at school make it harder for kids to enjoy healthy foods. If children grow up eating healthy food then they will be more persuaded to choose, say an apple over potato chips. Healthy school lunches will also cause children to have a lower BMI and will help them avoid future health problems. Most teachers will even tell you that students that eat healthy and nutritious meals can focus and do better in school. This blog will cover statistics on the nutrition in most common school lunches, healthy choices for breakfast to help increase healthy choices throughout the day, how bad nutrition can effect you in the long run, and facts about school lunches and how to avoid eating unhealthy. We hope that this blog will help encourage you to eat healthier and find ways to eat healthy in school.
