Section 4:

Implementing a healthy diet and exercise is important in my life because those are the two most important aspects of living a long prosperous life. It is also important for maintaining a healthy body weight. The foods that I have access to at school are not healthy. The choices for lunch are pizza, chicken nuggets, nachos, and chicken sandwiches. The snack choices are cookies, chips, and donuts.

I would like to see change occur. The types of changes I would make in the cafeteria include selling fruit slices such as apples and oranges. The changes I would in the vending machines are to put in granola bars, baked chips, and fruit snacks. Also, I would lower the prices in the vending machine if I could. This minor improvement could slightly alter the calorie intake of students and faculty at Thornridge.
