Look at some of the facts from that article, I don't know the sources but if they're anywhere near close it's a scary thought:

"one in four Americans visits a fast-food restaurant every day. "


"Among the issues he highlights is the willingness of schools to feed students nothing but burgers and pizza."

Is that a joke? The kids at my children's schools get pizza once a month maybe, and never burgers. Do schools really give kids fast food in the US? I mean younger than high school.
My school used to have a snack counter where you could get all the crap you wanted. I think schools typically just give their food prep to the lowest bidder, and it's cheaper to prepare crap than to give kids real food.
