Makes one wonder who thought it was a good idea to start serving food like that in schools in the first place. If the kids wont eat normal food then they're not hungry.

My old elementary school had a deal with some distributor. Distributor put in a couple snack & soda machines & the school got a cut of the profit.

I just assume this is similar.
