I think school lunches provide a tremendous opportunity for improving nutrition status-many kids eat 2/3 meals at school daily. I'm a peds dietitian, and I'd say 95% (if not more) of all the patients I see complain that school lunches are gross. Not all families have the capacity to pack from home lunches, nor do I think they should have to just because school food isn't up to par.
