So, I've heard stories about different school systems sending bureaucrats into classrooms to tell students if their lunches were, as
they deemed, healthy or not. One story I recall (out of the many that gained national attention) was about a little girl that brought a home-made lunch to class... she had a turkey sandwich, banana, some chips and apple juice. The 'food inspector' said, "That's not healthy enough", told the girl she couldn't eat her lunch, and instead said she had to eat chicken nuggets. The school system then billed the parents for the chicken nuggets.

What's even better is the cost of the lunches have increased, some students are simply throwing away portions, and others are running a 'black market' of 'junk food.'
Go go, more government regulation.http://pjmedia.com/blog/wasted-food-hun ... in-action/ <-- inb4 OMFG PJ is CONSERVATIVE HURHURHUR BIAS BIAS BIAS
