"95% of people on the USDA nutrition guidelines for America 2020 and 2025 had a conflict of interest with food companies. These studies are used to influence what the USDA is basically saying can go in school lunches. The USDA controls the US school lunch program which serves 3 billions meals per year to students. It's largest fast food chain in America, is the USDA school lunch program. Just this past year Kraft Heinz is brokering deals with the USDA to put lunchables in school...you look at the ingredients there's about 60 ingredients in these packages. There's no fruit, there's no vegetables, it's literally processed flour, processed sugar, processed oil...it's just these staples of the American ultra processed food system that are rotting children's brain and bodies."
