fraiserougeThis week, California passed legislation banning ultra-processed foods
Banning is all swell and dandy but a big issue most schools have is making lunch for so many kids with so little money.
And on top of that there's the outrageous charges they place on families and the draconian debt collection measures they sometimes rely on.
Banning is easy, solving is not. Sorry.

California schools are mandated to offer breakfast and lunch to every child for free, so not a concern on that front.
I think Connecticut does this too. Maybe it’s because my kid goes to a title one school, but I haven’t had to pay for lunch/breakfast since the pandemic.
LucidlethargyYour concerns are not valid for my state of Califirnia. School lunches are provided through state and federal funding to all kids.
California might as well be another country at this point. I mean, we do have the fourth largest economy in the world.
