“The other way that you democratize the food movement is through the public school system. If you can pay enough for the school lunch system so that it can actually be cooked and not just microwaved, so that these schools can buy local food, fresh food, because right now it's all frozen and processed, you will improve the health of the students, you will improve the health of the local economy, and you will have better performing students.” IfsWayEnoughSchoolPayEconomyMovementStudentsRight NowLocalsPerformingLunchFrozenPublic SchoolSchool SystemFresh FoodLocal FoodSchool Lunch Author:Michael Pollan
