[|What's More Healthy, Cafeteria Or Packed Lunch?] By: Sager, Michele//. Tampa Tribune (FL)//, 02/03/2009 (//AN 2W62W62982487813//) Notes: Schools will soon be required to check students’ lunch boxes or bags to ensure healthy food choices are being made. The food sometimes brought from home is unhealthy, consisting of only sweets, or junk food items that won’t give the students enough energy to last throughout the day. [|HEALTH CHECKS ON PUPILS' LUNCHES.] //Daily Mail//, 1/24/2008, p4, 1/8p
 * Theodore T. - Notes: There are many different food choices to choose from in school, but that doesn’t mean that students are choosing the right ones. Also, packed lunches aren’t always healthier ones. The food that is brought from home can contain high amounts of sodium or fat, making the food unhealthy as students eating only the desserts and snacks on their trays
 * Theodore T. -

Notes: Schools are expected to serve only healthy snacks, not ones that would degrade the quality and healthiness of the lunches that have been extravagantly prepared for the students. Schools serve all kinds of snacks at the snack bar, but that doesn’t mean that the students are actually choosing healthy ones to eat. [|EDITORIAL: Snack attack] //Boston// //Globe (1997 to 2005)//, 04/29/2007 (//AN 2W62W61747462184//) Notes: School lunch programs are full of unhealthy processed foods.

School lunches must be able to stand the test of time, a few lunch periods. []

 * <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">Felicia Phan
 * Notes:** Students were randomly selected to participate in a study of factors affecting school lunch participation in the Cincinnati Public Schools (N = 1,804). Results showed that the quality and variety of food offered were significant factors affecting the students' decision to participate. The length of the lunch period and the amount of time spent waiting in line also were significant factors. (This article shows how widespread the problem is.)

 * Notes:** Ginger Hodison made her children bring their lunches because they always arrived home hungry. "When they come home, they're starving to death, not only because it's time to eat again, but because they didn't eat as much as they would have if it was something they really liked," Hodison says. She made bento boxes, which are compact lunchboxes that feature several compartments just right for fruits and veggies, cheese and crackers, and other small treats.

 * Notes:** The country's school lunches are getting healthier, but still don't meet all of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's standards. In 1999, only 18% of elementary school and 22% of secondary school lunches met the USDA's standard for total content. (The quality in school lunches still need work and most don’t follow the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s standards.)
