Are you making the argument that we should not serve healthy foods in school? Perhaps if you can explain to me what you are talking about, I will understand your position better.

Not at all.

My point is that if healthy foods are offered at school along with the usual assortment of fritos, potato chips, etc., kids with bad eating habits will likely continue to consume junk food.

I think its a laudable goal to provide healthy lunches to kids in school, but if one is looking to change eating habits (and I'm not at all sure that the schools should be responsible for this) then junk food should not be available.
