TDA amends policy on snacks in Texas schools
Texas Agriculture Department amends rules on foods of minimal nutritional value at elementary and middle schools effective Aug. 1. Access to carbonated drinks candy and gum is barred for elementary students. 12 ounce limit applies to middle school beverages. The policy targets obesity and mandates on-site compliance checks by the department with USDA oversight and potential loss of federal meal reimbursements for violations.
