Re: 115th Congress. In Bridge, Can Hearts be Trumped? In Spades!
The big complaints coming from Republicans after the nutritional guidelines were passed during Pres. Obama's time in office were that they increased the cost of meals for the schools and students' families, and that a number of students were disposing of their meals without eating much of anything on their plates because they simply didn't taste good.
I have no idea about the taste factor (though personal history tells me that schools didn't do well before this change), but it's easy to see the cost factor associated with requiring healthier lunches in the schools. People often complain that the cheapest ingredients can be found in fast food restaurants, and that's more or less what my schools were serving when I was that age - and they failed to meet McD's high standards.
