"Students at a local school are staging a lunch protest by bringing their own food. After a small beginning, the effort has snowballed into about half of the entire school. The students are 'brown-bagging' it in protest against new national school lunch guidelines."....................."The principal at St. Mark's, Craig Idacavage, worries it's not enough food, too.

"They come to school at 8:30 and some of them have practice until close to 5:30," Idacavage said, "and this could be the only meal they get, so it's really tough."

Other students say previous year's lunch trays didn't have enough food. Now, it's even worse. Add to the fact that the lunch prices went up this year in order to offset the higher cost of these healthier meals.

"This year, we'll be hungry by 2:00," said 7th grader Zach Eck. "We would eat our pencils at school if they had nutritional value."".................

By all means....give the kids what they want.....fried twinkies anyone? As a parent, I would rather they be fed health, lower calorie lunches than junk food.....but then there are those who think kids should make the rules and obesity is not a problem in this country.

When I was a kid, we always brown bagged lunches to school, until Junior or High School. Then if I wanted to buy lunch in the cafeteria, I had to use my own paper route or after school job money. Otherwise it was make your own brown bag. Peanut butter n Jelly, or Baloney! Yum!

Another fine conservative thought process. The "do it yourself" concept.
My school days were exactly the same.

Good point... my kids are in sports throughout the year, eat like pigs, and are all skinny.
