his articles is about the amount of tax that the American people are paying for the unhealthy foods they are putting in their mouths. he states that "rather then subsidizing the production of unhealthy food we should turn the tables and tax like soda, French fries, donuts, and hyperprossed snacks" (bad food? tax it, and subsidize vegetables , brittman , 5). he goes on to saying that we should be putting veggies and fruit rather then chips and soda in the market stores and corner stores. I don't feel like this article would help the research paper that I am righting however it did provide good facts and data that may help someone else righting along this topic.

this article was focused on school lunches and the failed program they have going on. the two authors brought up that the food they are serving students during lunch time have the same ingredients as a fast food restaurant would have. they say that the school lunches aren't healthy no matter how much they say it is healthy. they bring up some ways to change the system like maybe using local farmers and maybe even hiring actual cooks. they bring up the idea to not use premaid food and to actually cook the food because the money they are getting for the school lunches aren't really being used totally on school lunches. yes I do believe I can use this article for my research project considering we are both talking about the school lunches and how corrupt the system is.

my top is about food waste in the school system and how much the average students waste the food everyday.

  1. I agree that the government should be working more to better the National School Lunch Program. Doing so would have students eating much healthier since the school would be able to afford better food ingredients.The government needs to stop making the wrong decisions, and start helping by making the people and students healthier.
