Dear editor,
This is in response to Ms. Lynn’s article on nutrition in the school cafeteria. I’m sorry, I disagree.
I’ve worked in the school lunch program for 34 years. I know how hard we try to get the young ones to eat vegetables and fruits.
We try to encourage them, almost beg them to try one bite.
Nothing will change the bad habits they have formed. It starts from birth on. They have to be introduced at an early age.
Good behavior and nutrition start at home, not at school.
Sunday’s Wichita Eagle had a good article on this.
Thank you,
Lillian Orzechowski,
Iola, Kan.
