Smoothies raise funds amid school vending policy debate
At Nolan Catholic High a weekly smoothie stand funds a fundraiser amid Texas school nutrition rules that limit fried foods and cap beverage portions. Spokeswoman Kendra Gilberd links rising youth obesity to soda and candy access since the late 1970s. Students queue for 12 ounce smoothies in a common area as vending machines offer chips, candy and sodas. De la Torre notes her machine might stock Skittles but supports smoothies as a healthier option.
