...I think that chocolate milk should be banned from all school cafeterias. Chocolate milk has a lot of sugar in one carton. Even though chocolate milk does have a lot of calcium in it, you can get it in other things. It also contains animal protein. Chocolate milk has 25 grams of sugar in it. Too much sugar can lead to obesity. Michelle Obama tried to get rid of childhood obesity by making schools serve certain things. There are also other things you could serve that have less sugar in them. Orange juice only has 18 grams of sugar and white milk has 13 grams of sugar. There are better options than chocolate milk. Even though chocolate milk does have a lot of calcium in it, there are other things that have calcium in it too. White milk has...

...fast food advertising should be banned, others argue that more physical activity would cure the problem and then there are those who blame the parents, arguing that it is their responsibility to monitor and teach their children to eat appropriately. Children spend a large portion of the year in school consuming many of their daily calories from school lunches; something must be done to make the food they eat healthier. School lunches are full of fat and calories and do not offer the right type of fruits and vegetables, no appropriate proteins and dairy items. The government has partnered with farmers to provide the food to the schools but in doing so has not offered our children the healthiest options. In addition schools do not have the budget to purchase healthier options on their own and will often subsidize the food program by selling name brand fast food in the cafeteria for a marked up price. Changing children’s eating habits in schools will be very difficult because you can’t force children to eat. It is uncertain if changing school lunches would decrease obesity or not. Though children are in school for a large portion of the day they still have time at home and if life changes are not made changing how they eat in one area may not do much of anything. Another assumption I have made is that by increasing recess time rather than decreasing it children would not be as obese. The same goes for making physical education mandatory in elementary schools and requiring physical...

...from the South Dakota Department of Education and Cultural Affairs Division of Education Services Menu Production Packet. 1 Menu Production Records Performance Objectives The participant will demonstrate an understanding of the Michigan Menu Production Record by completing assigned parts of the form. For more information about production records, refer to: A Menu Planner for Healthy School Meals, USDA (FNS-303), 1998. Introduction to Menu Production Records The Menu Production Record is a tool that is used in every foodservice operation, including restaurants, commercial cafeterias, and institutional cafeterias. Its main purpose is to plan and control food production. A written production record provides a place for the manager to plan the amount of food that will be prepared and then record what was actually served. Adjustments can be made to the Menu Production Record during preparation and service in order to indicate any changes that may need to be made. Since the Child Nutrition Programs receive reimbursement for lunches, breakfasts, and snacks that conform to the meal pattern, the School Food Authority must provide documentation to the state and federal government about the food and the amounts that were served. The Menu Production Record becomes the documentation of the amounts served. It is also the basic record that will be used by the state agency during a review to determine compliance with nutrient standards. The Menu Production Record is also an excellent planning...

...Remember the days when your mom or dad used to pack your school lunches? Remember how excited you were when you opened your lunch box and found a treat waiting inside, maybe a pack of fruit snacks or a brownie? Now imagine this, as you go to take a bite of that brownie or a fruit snack from your pack, not only your treat, but your entire lunch box is taken away from you. Wouldn’t you be heartbroken (and also hungry)? Well, unfortunately this is the case for may children all over the country. Their entire lunches are being snatched away if they are deemed “unhealthy” by school staff. Parents are infuriated and for good reason. Kids are being left without food for lunch and/or snacks even though their parents are packing food for them daily....

...Alcohol is the most commonly abused substance in the United States according to Pandrea, Happel, Amedee, Bagby, &ump; Nelson, 2010, and studies show that reducing alcohol consumption can lead to public health improvements such as decreased incidence of “liver cirrhosis, delirium tremens, male suicide, criminality, hospitalizations, alcohol-related disease mortality, workplace injuries, STDs, IPV, rape, robbery, and severe violence towards children” (Jernigan). Public heath deals with many other issues that cause burdens to individuals and society alike such as obesity and gun use. Over the past several months, headlines in the news have been echoing “Chocolate Milk Removed from School Lunches,” and “Senate Considers Federal Tax on Soda.” While the removal of chocolate milk from school menus has actually happened in certain school districts across the country, federal tax on sodas has only been a proposal at this point. However, both echoes resounding through the news originated from escalating research that America’s twin epidemics of diabetes and obesity are due to diets high in sugar. The end result is that the actions taken to fight obesity have not been classified as either effective, uncertain, or harmful consistently through studies and research because there are too many variables like genetics, other sugar-loaded beverages and foods on the shelf, lack of exercise,...

...Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Nutrition plays an important role in the present age of scientific investigation and discovery. Recent studies and discoveries in the field of nutrition have been considered among the greatest scientific achievements because of their far reaching effects on human progress and welfare. Credit is due to those investigators in the field of nutrition who made careful and painstaking studies which have given knowledge on how best to select, combine and prepare food to promote the health and efficiency of the individual The world’s demand for food is becoming greater than ever. The current world population of 8 billion needs new innovations to meet the growing challenges of the poor and hungry world. Over nutrition, obesity, and related diseases characteristic of the developed world, is becoming serious public health problems in countries with widespread food insecurity. Children suffering from under nutrition today could well be afflicted with chronic diseases of development as adults. The economic development that has led to improved food security and better health in some countries needs to be harnessed, while at the same time incentives to avert the adverse health effects of the nutrition transition need to be taken. The potential of novel foods to alleviate under nutrition is becoming more apparent. But they are unlikely to have a role in the prevention of diseases associated with over nutrition in developing countries, which use...

...all began when milk became a symbol of protest * Founded in 1946 to stop the exploitation by middlemen * Inspired by the freedom movement The seeds of this unusual saga were sown more than 65 years back in Anand, a small town in the state of Gujarat in western India. The exploitative trade practices followed by the local trade cartel triggered off the cooperative movement. Angered by unfair and manipulative practices followed by the trade, the farmers of the district approached the great Indian patriot Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel for a solution. He advised them to get rid of middlemen and form their own co-operative, which would have procurement, processing and marketing under their control. In 1946, the farmers of this area went on a milk strike refusing to be cowed down by the cartel. Under the inspiration of Sardar Patel, and the guidance of leaders like Morarji Desai and Tribhuvandas Patel, they formed their own cooperative in 1946. This co-operative, the Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers Union Ltd. began with just two village dairy co-operative societies and 247 litres of milk and is today better known as Amul Dairy. Amul grew from strength to strength thanks to the inspired leadership of Tribhuvandas Patel, the founder Chairman and the committed professionalism of Dr Verghese Kurien,who was entrusted the task of running the dairy from1950. The then Prime Minister of India, Lal Bahadur Shastri decided that the same approach should become the basis...

...three types of cocoa-based product businesses. First is the industrial products business of semi-processed cocoa used in different stages of chocolate manufacturing. Second is the chocolate business where it competes with large, established brands owned by multinational companies. Third is the cocoa-based beverage business. The focus of the case is mainly on VCIL’s cocoa-based beverage business. THE BEGINNINGS The company set up a plant with large production capacities to produce and market chocolates under its own brand name. The capacity utilization for the various product lines in 2000 ranged from 9 per cent to 40 per cent. On closer examination, it is seen that the highest capacity utilization is in the industrial product lines of cocoa bean crushing and cocoa powder (40% and 30% respectively). The capacity utilization for the consumer product lines ranges from 9 per cent for the moulded chocolate line to 23 per cent for the Victor Plus beverage line. Due to the low capacity utilization, especially in its consumer product lines, the company was forced to take up contract work from MNCs for the production of chocolates under the MNC’s brand name. Although not explicitly mentioned in the case, it seems that the company was initially an industrial products firm supplying semi-processed inputs to the MNCs who produced and marketed chocolates under their own brand names. Due to the seemingly large...
