They eat from the "hot line" only as there are parental controlled accounts, which I do not allow the purchase of snack items or "junk" items (i.e. pizza, chicken nuggets, juices, soda, etc.). They get a meat, bread, fruit, vegetable and an 8oz carton of 1% WHITE Milk, which they actually prefer white milk, they have all asked me, why would you take away from the taste of good milk. I know I sound horrible but at ages 7,9 and 10 they are all very healthy girls and active in sports. My 3 girls eat lunch in the school cafeteria each day.

My daughter entered kindergarten this year and we allow her to buy her lunch one day a week. She always picks Friday - pizza day! I do know that the school offers vegetables and fruit, but I do not think she eats them and instead opts to buy a cookie or chips (she rarely gets these things in the meals we serve). It is interesting to see what goes on as kids get older and have the opportunity to make their own food choices. I hope that the cashier at my daughter's school is as helpful as the one you observed.

He usually takes a banana or apple slices. They also drink water, and the director said not only do all the children in the class gladly drink the water, they go back for more.
