This year, prompted by changes in federal school-lunch rules, Central Florida students are not allowed to turn down the healthful produce, much of which can end up in the dumpster.

What a surprise. The government forces kids to put fruit on their trays whether they want it or not so then the kids throw it out. Any bets on what the government's solution to this problem will be? My bet is putting the kids in detention if they don't eat the fruit.

Agree, plus reporting non compliance to social services or paying the students or the parents if the veggies are consumed.
