I'm going show my age here but when I was in public school, at least in elementary and jr. high, there were no vending machines with sodas and snacks. I do recall a few machines at my HS but not a lot.
I feel like I'm beating a dead horse here but the key is providing nutritional information to consumers, be it a color coding system at the buffet or on the pkg. Why the "nanny-state whiners" can't see this is beyond me, as they seem to oppose ideas like this.
