Healthy Food At School

Our schools should give healthy food options.

Dear Future President,

Hello! My name is Huy. I am a Junior in high school. I want school lunches to be healthier and more delicious.

I have some ideas about healthier lunch foods. One of my ideas is for the cafeteria to serve salad with ranch. Students should eat salad with ranch because it is the healthier choice rather than pizza or hamburgers. Eating salad with ranch will help students lose weight and maintain a healthy weight.

My second idea for healthier foods would be getting rid of junk foods in the vending machines. By doing this, we are assisting students in making healthier choices by eliminating the unhealthy choices. Unhealthy snacks are not good because they make students weak. Healthy snacks make students stronger because they're better. They have vitamins which are important because our bodies need energy. Some healthy foods to put in the vending machines are baby carrots, cups of fruit, and grapefruit.

Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I hope you will think about making schools carry healthier foods. Have a nice day.

Sincerely,

Huy
