Sex is good, but not as good as fresh, sweet corn-Garrison Keillor

I don't know how many of you are o'ssed with Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution, but it's a pretty good show, highlighting a massive problem in America: school lunches. Schools serve processed pizza after processed pizza, french fries are considered a vegetable, and the "fruit" is fruit cocktail, dripping with sugary syrup. Nasty. I found this blog, written by a teacher who decided to eat school lunches everyday for a year and she's chronicling what she eats and how she feels. Pretty interesting stuff. Check it out.

I totally understand that money is an issue and schools are forced to cut corners where they can, but they need to take a closer look at what they are feeding students.
