The lack of fitness is what caused free school lunches to become a thing during the last war.
There's a difference between malnutrition due to scarcity and malnutrition due to overconsumption of the wrong nutrients, though.
Kids need to be taught proper eating habits and school lunches need to be sufficiently nourishing and not pizza/chicken nuggets/cheeseburgers/tacos/pasta every day of the week like they had when I was younger.
Tacos and pasta can be nutritious if you put in some effort ...
How so? Get lean beef, lettuce and tomato then skip the sour cream is what comes to my mind.
Yeah. Reasonable portions, more vegetables, less fat. Many pasta and taco recipes don't have any (sour)cream in the first place.
