Students Say It Best: "We Need Better School Food"

By Mark Bishop, Deputy Director

I came across this video via Edible San Francisco, and it's truly great. It's a student-produced piece on the importance and challenges of offering a healthy and tasty school meal.

You gotta take a look. It's well done, entertaining and only will take three minutes of your day. Trust me, it's worth it. These students say it so much better than I could.

My students in Chicago complain about this every single day. Probably 25% or more of the lunch items are thrown away daily. There is tremendous waste, and the students do not feel valued being forced to eat unappetizing food.
