Eliminate Processed Junk Food from Schools
School cafeterias are among the most influential food environments.
What’s Broken
Most school cafeterias serve food that undermines health and stifles academic performance.
The Fix
Replace with scratch-cooked meals like NYC’s Alternative Menu and Boston’s My Way Café.
How to Take Action
- Advocate for better school nutrition standards
- Support programs bringing chefs into schools
- Push for real kitchens with combi-ovens
- Ban sugary milk and processed foods
