Yes.
Well...you can pay more when you eat today, or pay more for your medical bills later. I guess everyone will end up paying about the same amount. I'd rather pay more for better quality food (local or organic) than hang out in doctor's offices and hospitals. That's just me.

i made a strange discovery while baking with whole wheat flour (kind arthur brand): my husband and i totally prefer our chocolate chip cookies made with all whole wheat flour. somehow they just taste more buttery and rich. i highly suggest trying it out. and i use the exact same amount of w.w. flour as the amount of a.p. flour most recipes call for.

also, pizza dough is tricky with whole wheat - but king arthur also makes white whole wheat (i guess it has less germ/ bran?) and that works pretty well for my pizzas.

I have to agree with previous posters thoughts: get fast/ frozen/ fried/ processed foods out of school cafeterias first. then worry about what's going on in the surrounding community.

It's funny how our (and by our, i mean ALL the citizens' of this country, cause whether you have kids or not, they are the future of YOUR country) childrens' educations cease during lunch hour. Kids learn about hypocrisy early on when they are taught about agriculture, or different cultures or science and health and p.e. then go to the cafeteria to see that their government doesn't give a shit about any of that stuff when it comes to putting it into practice. Just eat this super cheap, processed flavorless junk. Then you better be bright eyed, bushy-tailed and focused the rest of the day! And get good test scores for us!

It's just a (easy and fun) missed learning opportunity for everybody.

But yeah, there are always more fast food places in low income neighborhoods, where schools have the least amount of money for decent lunches anyways. But first things first.
