As I noted my 2015 Civil Eats piece, «Why There's So Much Sugar in Your Kid's School Breakfast,»
federal school breakfast rules now require that students be offered a full cup of fruit at breakfast, which sounds great on paper.
Nonetheless, I still feel there are many more troubling sources of sugar in
school cafeterias, such as the ubiquitous, fiber - free juice often served at
breakfast in lieu of fruit, as permitted by
federal rules, or sugary
breakfast entrees and a la carte snacks.
