Thanks, Beth, for pointing out that we already have knowledgeable people willing to partner with state agencies to provide good nutrition for our children; in fact it's already happening locally. This is a good example of overreach, pushed by special interests who are perhaps more interested in profits than nutrition.
As a math nerd, I appreciate your facts and figures. Thanks for being such a good researcher thus saving us time and effort to dig them out. When we discuss this issue with others, it's nice to know the facts.
p.s. Got the 29th of June circled on my calendar! (Oh, by the way, if I am" the famous, exciting special guest", know that my invitation must have somehow got lost in the mail.)
As someone who eats a plant-based diet--thanks to you and your farm fresh eggs, Beth, I can't call myself a vegan anymore :-D--the control that the Corn and Pork Producers, Cattlemen’s Association, etc. consistently demonstrate pisses me off. School lunches were problematic with the federal standards and now, with SF525 ... #%(#*!
Oh Beth how do you keep from going crazy when you find out things like this?! I keep close tabs on the unempathetic trifecta and didn’t even know this existed. Thank you for your diligence on tracking ag issues. What a time we live in!
I know! It is through the Iowa Food System Coalition I found out, and got to learn about school lunch from the partners. The third episode in the new podcast will be about school lunch in Iowa—the great, the not so great and the terrible.
