A blueprint demonstrating results for other schools to follow is the only way to create change, this concepts gives us hope for healthier humans in the future. Thank you!
This is such an exciting venture! I pray it is successful. I have grandchildren now and worry so much about the foods they are exposed to as well as the insane number of vaccines they are required to receive. They deserve so much better. Best of luck!!!
Catherine, I have mixed feelings about this school program. Having skilled chefs cooking is great, but these kids are never going to be able to sustain healthy eating habits unless we reinstate Home Ec classes. I would have been thrilled to see these kids working to prepare meals with the chefs, planning the meals, buying ingredients for the meals. MAHA needs to address this with the public schools. We all know Laozi's saying: give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, but if you teach him how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime. Time to make it policy.
I hear you, Sonia, but if there's going to be a step it would be better to reinstate mandatory Home Ec than just having one good meal. While school lunches account for a lot, if the kid is pre diabetic and eats a low glycemic, non processed lunch, then goes home to parents who don't cook and pop a pre made dinner in the microwave and serve it with several cans of soft drinks, that can undo all the good at school. I'm amazed at how few adults cook at all.
Can a Revolutionary School Lunch Program in a Small Florida Town Change the Way Children Eat Across America?
Yes, it can and will, but it requires a lot of background knowledge. My long life experiences prove it beyond a doubt. A small example: Food grown within one mile of a golf course cannot be considered as "organically grown."
The vegan "process?" Unfortunately, there are too many people, who will make excuses for animal torture for the plate and cup. Most people eat fruits and vegetables. Organic farms for the most part are cautious, as are in home gardens. Dairy is a sexual violation, and non-consensually reproducing animals. As the saying goes, "Dairy is Scary:" https://youtube.com/watch?v=UcN7SGGoCNI.
https://vbriefings.org/kill says: "The “crop deaths” objection is part of a broader pattern of attempts to dismiss veganism...while ignoring the far greater harms in animal-based systems." "...they distract from the urgent reality: billions of sentient animals are intentionally bred, exploited, and slaughtered each year...""When animals are raised for human food, not only are those animals slaughtered, but even more animals are lost...because farmed animals eat larger quantities of crops."

One step at a time, Polly.

Kudos to this team for their vision!

This is wonderful, minus anything animal.
You might want to check out how many animals are annihilated in the vegetarian/vegan process.

This wonderful, crucial endeavor makes me so happy!
