The earth I tread on is not a dead, inert mass. It is a body, has a spirit, is organic, and fluid to the influence of its spirit, and to whatever particle of that spirit is in me. She is not dead, but sleepeth.
- Henry David Thoreau

I like this idea.
In a response to the plea from TV chef Jamie Oliver for a 'school dinner revolution', the Prime Minister will say that school kitchens will be rebuilt and equipped so dishes can be cooked from scratch, while dinner ladies are given 'culinary skills' to help them create appetising menus. ...Blair will shortly meet Oliver to receive the petition triggered by his Feed Me Better campaign, now signed by more than 100,000 people, calling for low-fat, healthy, fresh school food.
HealthySchoolLunches.org is promoting a similar program here in the US, by producing a yearly school lunch report card and trying to improve school lunch nutrition. Right now, the schools aren't faring too well, with Fairfax County Virginia getting the highest grade (B) and Albuquerque Public School District in New Mexico getting an F. Nobody made over a B; that makes me sad.

I remember school lunches. Before I was health-conscious, I was drinking a Frutopia drink every single day and eating god knows what for the actual lunch. I know that I always had some sort of little debbie cake, as well, so you can imagine the sugar intake I was getting on a daily basis. I remember lots of people, particularly girls, getting nothing but fries and soda for lunch. That kind of thing has to stop, and it has to stop NOW.
