In the school in which I teach, 20 years ago the hamburgers were all cooked at 9 am, then kept warm til 11:30. Ugh. Here in Ontario we've had healthy menus mandated- but we also have a 2 pizza joints, one at either end right across the street, and 2 burger places out in front. So the kids are voting with their feet.

But Congress specifically added language that makes pizza a food group because frozen food manufacturers can add more tomato sauce, causing it to be classified as a vegetable. <a href="http://readersupportednews...." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://readersupportednews.org/opinion2/277-75/84...">http://readersupportednews....

True story: once a month my school served Frito Chili Pie. Say what you want about corporate branding, I'm still a fan of this meal.
