Eating Helathy Food

SHOULD SCHOOL CAFETERIAS SERVE ONLY HEALTHY FOOD? Nowadays, in every school there is a cafeteria or vending machines where there are only unhealthy foods. I firmly believe this is a big problem in our society because of overweight, what’s more, I think this kind of food can bring lots of health consequences to young people. Firstly, eating too much unhealthy food, from vending machines and cafeterias makes young people fat and in the habit of eating incorrectly. Therefore, I feel that this kind of food shouldn’t be in the school, because this is an educational center so children have to learn what they can eat and what it is healthy for them. In the second place, as far as I’m concerned, in cafeterias there should be healthy food like fruit, juice, milk, cereals and things like that, to teach students to eat in a good way. Moreover, in my opinion schools should organized some healthy breakfasts along the school year to teach young people how they should eat, as we do in the IES Santa Ana. To sum up, I strongly believe that the school direction is to blame for the situation because they could forbid this kind of food in the schools, just as they do with the cigarettes or drug. Personally I think it would be good for all of us.
