Texas School Cafeteria

When schools opened in Texas this fall, some favorites were missing from the cafeteria
menus. Sodas and candy bars had been banned for grade schoolers, chips and cookies
were mini-size. And that perennial favorite, the French fry, was given just one more
year before it will be banned too. Howls of protest could be heard everywhere. And not
just from students. Principals complained about being forced to act as "nutrition
police." Parents and kids traded schoolyard rumors about Twinkies being confiscated
from lunch boxes. Nearly everyone, addicted to the revenues that vending machines
bring in, yelled that there wouldn't be enough money for activities like band camp and
choir trips. Angry e-mails poured into the woman who had imposed the new rules -
Texas agriculture commissioner Susan Combs.
