  'junk food' in schools

most of the headlines morgan spurlock's super size me garnered dealt with the fast food industry.

whether or not the movie had any influence on mcdonald's decision to drop the super sized option, another issue dealt with in the movie (with much less media fanfare) is being addressed. several states are examining 'junk food' policies within schools. while eating fast-food is a choice, serving junk food to kids in school is different.

i'm not saying these are a direct result of the movie, but mr spurlock definitely addressed valid issues in a compelling manner. i'll give his new fx show 30 days a shot.
