Iowa schools increasingly serve a hot Type A lunch through the national program. Nutritionist Jewel Graham explains the meal covers about one third of a 10 to 12 year old’s daily needs, including milk, lean protein, vegetables, bread, and cereals, while home meals fill remaining daily requirements. Teenagers, however, may need more protein, energy, and minerals, and some lunchrooms offer larger portions for older children.
