Summary: A parent expresses concern over the prevalence of processed carbohydrates in children's food and school meals. They are calling on the FDA to take action against the use of these ingredients to promote better nutrition for children.
As a parent, I’m worried about how many kids' foods are loaded with processed carbs. It shouldn’t be this hard to find healthy choices in the store and schools shouldn't be filling our kids with them in meals meant to fuel learning. Not to mention that these ingredients are in almost everything, and they make it too easy to overeat without real nutrition. I want the FDA to stop giving processed carbs a free pass.
