USDA proposes rules for healthier school snacks
Volunteer parent Erin Delventhal served a healthy snack at Sunset Beach Elementary School, pineapple, to Koda Beschen, Bao Jones, Sam Stone and Kate Shower. The government for the first time is proposing broad new standards to make school snacks healthier, a move that would ban the sale of almost all candy, high-calorie sports drinks and greasy foods on campus.
