On July 1, the USDA rolled back evidence-based nutritional standards for school lunches. That means more salt, more refined grains, and more sugary, flavored milk. We think kids deserve better. Don’t you? #JoinTheFoodFight #SGinSchools schools.sweetgreen.com
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps The kids are eating that stuff now, what makes you think you can do any better at this than everyone who has already tried & failed ? Why should we throw more money at this ? What’s your solution ?
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps Sugar is the real problem here. It's more addictive than cocaine. Please stop attacking salt.
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps This is horrid Our kids deserve better
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps Where's the evidence?
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps A bit more salt wouldn’t be terrible. Kids waste a lot of food from school cafeterias because of the blandness. Food waste is a HUGE PROBLEM in school cafeterias and it is directly related to taste. A little more salt = more flavor = more kids eating veggies = less waste!!!
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps I wish there were cooking shows about creative school lunch prep and brown bagging in general. We need an American Bento box revolution.
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps Please, call your representatives and tell them to stop the destructive move of ERS and NIFA! Agencies who study important work like nutrition and climate change!
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps Accessing healthy food needs to start with schools 💪💙
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps Yes, we used to cook from scratch 75% of our food. Then the new mandates came down. The kids hated it. I am not sure where you get your information. We don’t have salt, even on baked potato day. It has taken years to get a whole grain breading the kids will eat.
@sweetgreen @nytimes @FoodCorps How about give us salt because our food is GARBAGE
