Junk Food Article #4

SUMMARY:  This article talks about students at Naperville Community Unit School District 203 not allowed to have any soda from the vending machines during the school day.  The reason for just opening the vending machines after school is because they want to decrease obesity and improper eating from the students.  Instead of junk food in the vending machines District 203 is banning drinks with high fructose corn syrup and they are not being sold at elementary schools and middle schools.

OPINION:  I think that what elementary and middle schools are doing is good becaue they are shaping the way of eating junk food for these students so by the time that they get to highschool they would know how to eat properly.  I believe that what District 203 is doing is also good because if the students or parents students dont do anything to help the school has to do what is has to do to get the students in a good habit to eating so it can decrease obesity or other illness from eating too much sugar.
