Gulp! Chocolate milk banned in L.A. Schools
Jamie
Oliver’s food revolution is invading once again. This time, he helped
get flavored milks banned from cafeterias across Los Angeles, according
to a recent blog post on the Los Angeles Times’ site. According to
Jamie, these seemingly healthy beverages (hey, does it get any better
for ya than milk??) contain more sugar per ounce than soda. Who knew?
The L.A. schools actually asked milk providers if they could whip up
some of the flavored stuff, just without all the sugar.
What do you girls think? Has this celeb chef gone too far? A couple
years ago, it was found that chocolate milk was a fab post-workout
beverage, because of its blend of carbs and protein (the duo is
essential after a sweat sesh). Remember when that Chicago school banned
brown lunches? What’s a girl to eat midday? Blog it out, babes....
