Ruis explores the origins of American school meal initiatives to explain why it was (and, to some extent, has continued to be) so difficult to establish meal programs that satisfy the often competing interests of children, parents, schools, health authorities, politicians, and the food industry. Through careful studies of several key contexts and detailed analysis of the policies and politics that governed the creation of school meal programs, Ruis demonstrates how the early history of school meal program development helps us understand contemporary debates over changes to school lunch policies.Critical issues in health and medicine.National school lunch programHistorylunch, eat, eating, nutrition, meal, school, school lunch, education, lunch program, FDA, healthy food, health, health food, carbs, carbohydrates, child nutrition, bagged lunch, lunchbox, cafeteria, sugar, caffeine, parents, PTA, public health.National school lunch programHistory.371.7/160973Ruis Andrew R.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.1660070DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910823031003321Eating to Learn, Learning to Eat4015058UNINA
