Particularly, the intersection of childhood obesity, school lunches, and food security. Certainly that National School Lunch (and Breakfast) Programs provide many students the only substantial, balanced meal of the day. As I allude to in my own blog post about Let's Move!, I think what the Task Force recommends in May will be quite telling as to the actual impact that this initiative will have. Your post makes me wonder whether they will incorporate metrics on food security, in addition to childhood obesity and school lunches in their evaluation/benchmarks. I hope they do! http://veritashealthblogspot.com Sarah – I think you raise some interesting questions. Particularly, the intersection of childhood obesity, school lunches, and food security.
