Summary: Is there a salad bar in your children’s school cafeteria? Would it make a school performance difference if your kids ate salad at lunch? Do your kids even eat salad? Often, the required ½ cup serving of a fruit or vegetable offered to your kids at school is being tossed in the garbage. And, kids are more likely to eat fruit and vegetables when given a choice. These are just two of the reasons why there is value having a salad bar in school. Yet, cost often stands in the way. There is a national movement to make salad bars available to kids.
