On January 26th, the Redstone Center submitted comments to the USDA in opposition to a proposed rule, "Child Nutrition Programs: Flexibilities for Milk, Whole Grains and Sodium Requirements." The Redstone Center writes in its comment to USDA, "...the overwhelming majority of school districts across the nation that are meeting the standards. The delays and waivers in the interim final rule will mean fewer students will have access to healthy whole grain options and more students will consume more than the recommended daily intake of sodium leading to future health risks."
