Essay Prompt #10...

                          Essay Prompt #10
Prompt: Some people think that school cafeterias should be required to provide low-fat and/or vegetarian lunch options to accommodate the eating habits of all students. Do you agree or disagree? Explain your position and use specific reasons and examples as support.
           Students should be having healthier foods to eat all over the country, although they should be something that the students like, not just any foods. Many schools around the country have changed what they serve their students to eat; instead of any foods they are now serving healthier foods. The only problem with this is that the foods they are serving the students now are not that great tasting and most students do not like to eat them. I think the best way to resolve this problem is by letting the students pick out of a list of healthy foods to eat. This would make the students actually want to get breakfast and lunch, and not skipping out on eating because the bad choices of food that the schools are serving.
Now that we have realized, that this generation has more overweight children than any other; it has caught the attention of schools to choose different types of foods to serve their students. Now they are serving healthier foods that have fewer calories and less fat than the foods they use to serve in schools. Although when they switched their options, I do not think they took the students into consideration. I know many people that do not like to eat what the school serves for breakfast or lunch because they do not like the taste of it. This is bad because it can cause students to starve and lose weight, which might not be good for their health.
It would be best for the students to pick the healthy foods they want, because they are the ones eating it and should have a say in it. There are many options that the students can pick from such as from small companies or big well know companies, like Subway. All the students would love subway because it is great tasting and still healthy at the same time, just as the schools want to serve lunch. Another example is that students could choose their favorite fruits or yogurts to serve as well with their lunch, to make it a full healthy lunch. This is why I think students should have a say in what they want to eat, so that they
It is important for the students to get the right lunch they want, because some students do not eat the whole day at school until they go back home. This is a bad problem because your system and especially your brain cannot function right without food. This also can affect their diet meaning it is going to make them eat wrong and not the normal three times a day, they might just eat twice or even once a day. Students not having the proper diet can affect their performance in school and can also harm their own body. That is why all students should eat properly every day.
Healthy foods are important for our society to survive, and that is why I agree with school serving healthier foods to students. Although the only problem that I think needs to be fixed is the types of healthy foods that they are serving to students. It should be a desirable food that anyone would want, without hesitating about it. The healthy foods should be changed for the greater good of our students
