SHOULD SCHOOL CAFETERIAS SERVE ONLY

HEALTHY FOOD?
Nowadays, in every school there is a cafeteria or
vending machines where there are only unhealthy foods. I
firmly believe this is a big problem in our society because of
overweight, what’s more, I think this kind of food can bring
lots of health consequences to young people.

Firstly, eating too much unhealthy food, from vending

machines and cafeterias makes young people fat and in the
habit of eating incorrectly. Therefore, I feel that this kind of
food shouldn’t be in the school, because this is an
educational center so children have to learn what they can
eat and what it is healthy for them.

In the second place, as far as I’m concerned, in

cafeterias there should be healthy food like fruit, juice, milk,
cereals and things like that, to teach students to eat in a
good way. Moreover, in my opinion schools should
organized some healthy breakfasts along the school year to
teach young people how they should eat, as we do in the
IES Santa Ana.

To sum up, I strongly believe that the school direction

is to blame for the situation because they could forbid this
kind of food in the schools, just as they do with the
cigarettes or drug. Personally I think it would be good for all
of us.
