Did You Know School Lunch Milk Has Less Sugar and Fewer Calories by Design?

This is what Julie Buric with the Milk Processor Education Program, had to say:

"Parents probably know what their kids are eating for breakfast and for dinner, but do they know what their children are getting for lunch each day? Typically, kids get about 30- to 50 percent of their calories while at school, and this year, there’s likely some big changes on the lunch line.

This year, not only are many cafeterias serving more whole grains and fresh vegetables, but also great-tasting flavored milk with fewer calories and less added sugar than in the past. Due to reformulations by the milk industry, on average, school chocolate milk is projected to have just 31 calories more than white milk and 38% less added sugar than five years ago."
