Who were these "researchers?" Who paid for the study? How much of school-prepared lunches is thrown away? Would it not be a gross overreach of government power to "turn their attention to parents and others who pack lunches at home"?<br />Here's the answer I got:Thanks for writing. The story I wrote was in error -- the tables comparing the national school lunch standards and the actual amounts packed at home used WEEKLY amounts for the national standards and only DAILY amounts for the home lunches. I missed the footnote that explained this. The story has been corrected. The home lunches still fall short in many respects.<br />Which ignores my questions completely. My journo profs would have failed her. Mrs. Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844593681874622532noreply@blogger.com
