As I mentioned yesterday, later this morning First Lady Michelle Obama and Agriculture Secretary Vilsack will announce the USDA’s long-awaited, new school food nutrition standards. The event will take place at Parklawn Elementary School in Alexandria, VA, a HealthierUS Schools Challenge award winner, and attendees will be treated to a healthy school lunch prepared by Rachel Ray.
I’ll share my thoughts on the new standards in the coming days. For more on today’s event, visit Obamafoodorama.
