Food truck versus Cafeteria

Which is the winner? Food truck, of course.

School cafeterias are promoting healthy eating to students by serving better food than ever before. Thanks to Michele Obama. I read an article where a food truck outside of Novato High school in California had students spending a good amount on all the junk food that the food truck sold. Students know that cafetaria food is better. Also, schools have vending machines with snacks like apples, milk, and baked chips. Yet, wonder why they go after the trucks?

Who said it was going to be an easy transformation? The transformation should probably start at home. Try to stop buying sodas and candies. Parents should never make it a part of their grocery items. Set standards by your own example. Then wait to see what happens. A treat once a week might truly help kids stay away from junk food and get over the sweet craving. Talking about them and following what is preached is most important as well. It might take months to years. But, it definitely starts at home.
