__ **Letter to the School** __

Dear Upper Merion School Board,

 We are the Right Choice. We have written this letter to address the problem of the school district. The school has failed in providing the students with the proper nutrients. We believe not enough students are eating enough vegetables or fruits because either the school fails to provide a good selection of fruits or vegetables or that the school fails to properly provide the proper food selections by providing a seemingly overwhelming amount of more “preferable” choices of food such as “pizza, fries, etc.” We have also noted the schools failure in providing a proper source of fruits. [The apples are pretty disgusting and abnormally small.] We plan to add plenty of fruits and vegetables into our Schedule. We don’t intend to completely change the lunch menu. We intend however to add a healthier selection of fruits and vegetables. By adding a fresh selection of fruits and vegetables, the school will save much more money than keeping its current selection of unhealthy snacks. All school lunches will still be $3 and will still provide the student with more nutrients than will the current lunch menu. Student will benefit from this lunch program because it provides a proper, nutritious meal. This menu is potentially cheaper due to the amounts of fruits and vegetables incorporated. Some of these fruits include apples, oranges, strawberries and watermelon. Our lunch program is potentially cheaper than the current lunch menu. The menu will enrich the students of this school district by providing the proper nutrients to keep students awake for the rest of the day. Our program instills the “right choices” in students by providing a bigger, better selection of food.

 Sincerely, The Right Choice.  __** INDIVIDUAL WORK **__  1) Chicken Caesar Salad - Calories 537, fat 27.8g, 46% calories from fat, cholesterol 138mg, protein 48.8g, carbohydrates 26.0g, fiber 3.2g, sugar 11.4g, sodium 391mg, diet points 12.9. + Fruit salad- Calories 211, fat 2.0g, 8% calories from fat, cholesterol 6mg, protein 7.3g, carbohydrates 44.9g, fiber 3.5g, sugar 39.4g, sodium 82mg, diet points 4.2. + Whole-wheat bread- Calories 128 + Milk, Reduced Fat, 2% Milk fat- Calories 122

Although it's not McDonald's, it's something anyone can enjoy when it comes to well balanced diets. It may not have the grease/fats that makes up the delicious part of meals, but the healthy side. I've chosen to give the option of water/milk being that their the less in fat, more in vitamins. I believe it would be a good change in all diets.

__** John **__ <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So when I was making my menu I thought “what to put in my lunch menu, that the kids will buy.” I was thinking what we have at our lunch, and see what could make it healthier but more appetizing to children. I believe that my menu is healthy but still appetizing.

__** Krista **__ - Vegetarianism helps people to eat healthy while being more green as well. Since it is important to our school and township to be green and environmentally conscience, the new school lunch menu is a good way to help. Vegetarianism reduces the amount of cows needed which reduces the methane gas in the environment. The Vegetarian menu includes nutritious and tasty foods that are also multi-cultural. Most of the foods are designed to allow even meat-eaters enjoyment.

__** Julian **__ I believe my menu for the week will only be successful if the school lunch staff are given a good supply of fruits and vegetables. Frankly, I think the fruits in the school lunch room are pretty nasty. The apples are smaller than a baseball and does not look very delectable to eat. Honestly, Its pretty disgusting. Is it so hard to buy good looking apples? Instead of serving the soup, they could serve something that looks appetizing like an apple. I would rather eat an apple than drink the soup. But if there were any good apples, then I wouldn’t be complaining. The pricing on the food will be cheaper and will provide a more nutritious meal for the students than will the current meal. The menu will be easier to prepare and cheaper to produce.
