cafeterias. “School meals are not only good to eat but they are good for students as well,” says Monroe Woods. School lunches are also reflective of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, which apply to children, are: • Eat a variety of foods • Maintain desirable weight • Avoid too much fat, saturated fat and cholesterol • Eat foods with adequate starch and fiber • Avoid too much sugar • Avoid too much sodium The American School Food Service Association has selected menus to celebrate National School Lunch Week, which are designed to fall in line with these directives. Calories, color, tex-

ture, seasoning and size of foods have been considered. Recipes were selected from the updated USDA Quantity Recipes for School Food Service, Program Aid 1371. The menus are: Oven baked chicken nuggets, mashed potatoes or oven heated french fries, seasoned mixed vegetables or crisp lettuce salad, wheat roll, chilled pineapple or fresh grapes, and milk; or Chef salad with croutons, Julienne ham and cheese, soft pretzel or wheat roll, fresh grapes or pineapple, choice of dressings, and milk To avoid too much fat, saturated fat and cholesterol in foods, USDA recommends that skinless, unbreaded chicken nuggets or fresh chicken be used. To reduce sodium, chicken should be seasoned with pepper, paprika

and/or garlic powder. Potatoes and vegetables should not have butter or salt added. French fries should be oven baked and rolls should not be brushed with butter. Pineapple and other fruits should be fresh or packed in unsweetened juices. More than 2,200 schools in Indiana will be serving the suggested menus and/or planning other fun activities such as health fairs, games, activities and posters to celebrate National School Lunch Week October 14-20. These Indiana schools received nearly SSO million in federal dollars and approximately 24 million pounds of commodities valued at sl6 million last year.
