                           "I'm a 
						pediatrician. If I have patients with health issues, I 
						am currently not able to recommend that they buy lunch 
						in the school cafeteria. The food that I've seen in the 
						elementary school was unappetizing and a fair amount of 
						it ended up in the trash. It is a shame and a huge waste 
						of an opportunity."
