It’s fiberglass mesh cloth

It’s fiberglass mesh cloth also worth noting that both studies used data gathered in the first year of the HHFKA’s implementation, before students had a chance to get used to seeing fruits and vegetables on their trays every day. And even the researchers who found lower fruit and vegetable consumption didn’t advocate changing school meal standards. Rather, they urged schools to do more to boost consumption, such as slicing fruit and serving vegetables with dips.

Because the SNA takes half its funding from processed food “patrons” such as PepsiCo, ConAgra, and Tyson, health advocates often see the hand of Big Food behind the organization’s current legislative agenda. After all, if school nutrition standards are weakened, more processed junk food can be sold to school districts, resulting in more profits to Big fiberglass mesh cloth.

That argument certainly makes sense and some food companies likely would stand to benefit if SNA’s lobbying efforts succeed. But according to a recent piece in Politico(paywall protected), many other companies have already adapted to the new rules and see no need to change them. Indeed, Politico reporter Helena Bottemiller Evich actually found that processed food companies “have a more secure spot than ever in cafeterias across the country because manufacturers have been willing to evolve and schools continue to need their inexpensive, pre-made products to feed millions of kids.”

With new school products like whole-grain-rich Pillsbury breakfast cinnamon rolls and reduced-sodium, whole-grain Schwan’s “Big Daddy” pizza, these companies haveinvested time and money into meeting the HHFKA’s standards–and they’re now reaping the rewards. According to Bottemiller Evich, “leading companies, including General Mills, Schwan’s, and Domino’s, are increasing their sales … and the industry as a whole has dialed down lobbying against nutrition standards. In some cases, food companies would even prefer to keep the new rules … and a compromise on one sticking point, sodium, seems fiberglass mesh cloth.”
