Most kids have access to free breakfast and lunch at school.

But if you want to talk about the price of food, you can blame the import tariffs placed on sugar and environmental regulations for gas containing ethanol. Because sugar is too expensive, they extract the ethanol from corn. This puts a higher demand on corn, driving up the cost of food.

They need to import sugar for ethanol production, bringing down the value of corn.
