We do not feel that this regulation addresses the issue of childhood obesity in the United States. Government should not have the right to regulate what people eat, this issue should be addressed by personal means not in the school lunch program. Regulating the amount of calories students consume during lunch is resulting in children gorging on unhealthy foods after school. The other group of children that is harmed by these regulations are those students whose only meal of the day is the one they receive at school which is now required to be under 850 calories. We feel these regulations impede on our civil liberties as American citizens.
