GD, nice post. These new portions we now are mandated to serve in school cafeterias is pathetic. I can't tell you the number of football players that complain that they can't make it through practice. Per girl's in general and the girls on my team, I don't know how they do it on what they eat. I asked mine last night to please bring grapes, carrots, ... anything to get food in their stomach. When my dd played HS softball, we finally found that she would eat the cheese and crackers we fixed and a snackable once in a while.
The reason for this thread is that I just don't know how many parents take the time to talk to their children about what they are eating. I believe many think that they are eating the school lunch and so, everything is good. Spaghetti was once a very popular meal at our school. Not any more. Anyone thinking that their kid is eating the spaghetti might want to make sure. Now, the pasta is made of whatever (I really don't know) and it is dark and somewhat brown. Few of the kids in my school will eat it. Well, I could go on and on. Again, please talk to your dds and make sure that before they participate in sports that they have taken the time to eat right.
