Kids are Accepting Healthier School Lunches
So supposedly Kids are Accepting Healthier School Lunches. While this would certainly be good news, I do have a couple concerns about the legitimacy of the claim. First, it is a non scientific survey. Second, the kids were not polled, school leaders were polled. The results are based on whether or not the school leaders perceive the kids as being more accepting or not. So it seems rather subjective and from a narrow perspective. What are your thoughts? Are your kids enjoying the new school lunches?
