Barbara brown
is the field representative

:51:27
for Sodexho, one of
the countless lowest bidders

:51:29
that school districts
have farmed out

:51:31
the feeding of your children to.
:51:33
Sodexho services more than
400 k-12 school districts

:51:36
nationwide every day,
:51:38
providing quality food like
little Debbie snack cakes,

:51:41
Gatorade, and candy bars
to your children.

:51:43
They also operate prisons
:51:44
and feed thousands
of inmates worldwide.

:51:47
Part of our position
is that we're hoping

:51:51
that through
nutrition education,

:51:53
the students will learn
to make the right food choices

:51:56
without restricting
what they can purchase.

:52:02
At this middle school
in Beckley, west Virginia,

:52:04
the school lunches don't have
the flair they do in Illinois.

:52:07
This school does not outsource
their food service,

:52:09
but they are on the federal
school lunch program,

:52:12
providing USDA reimbursable
meals to the students,

:52:14
most of which are reheated,
reconstituted packaged foods.

:52:18
Some days the amount of calories
in each meal tops 1,000.

:52:21
So, the USDA
sends this food

:52:23
for you
to prepare for kids.

:52:25
Right. Well, not all of it, now.
:52:27
You've got sloppy Joe
bar-b-que sauce with pork.

:52:32
From the government.
:52:33
Whatever happened to cooks
actually cooking?

:52:36
I don't know what happened.
Too many whiny people.

:52:39
They don't want
to work hard.

:52:40
It's easy to come in here.
:52:42
This is the best tool
we got right here --

:52:44
box opener.
:52:45
That's your chef's tool,
the box cutter.

:52:48
Open up a box, serve it,
give it to them.

:52:50
Let's look at the things
that are actually cooked.

:52:53
Here's a menu.
:52:54
Mashed potatoes.
:52:55
Ham.
Chili will be homemade.

:52:57
The chili
will be homemade.

:52:59
What about
the tomato soup?
