With a big issue throughout the United
States being obesity, it makes sense that schools are offering regulations
enforcing healthier meals for their students.
This, sounding like good news, is a good kickoff for an article on
Alexandra Sifferlin’s part. Many people
want to hear about kids becoming healthier and, as it would seem,
stronger. This, though, is not the case
with the lessened calories allowed at a school lunch. While skim milk and whole grain products are
increasing, students find that they have notably less energy throughout the
day. This can be a real problem, especially
for students who participate in scholastic sports. When working out and keeping fit for a team,
people need to take in more food. With
restrictions, this is not possible.
Sifferlin uses good sources and
tactics to hold her readers attention, even if it is not what they would like
to hear. She brings up sources, one
which is both entertaining as well as good at proving its point, a parody going
against the regulations and showing how sporty highschoolers and young children
feel. Because so many people know that
Americans are suffering from weight related problems, it brings in a big crowd
to read what Sifferlin has to say.
