I participate in the food program and I know that all I am required to do is offer the DCK food.
So every single day I fix wholesome foods. They have healthy meals and I even try to get creative and prepare foods they are "used to". Like today we had cheese quesadillas, a veggie, a fruit and milk. I threw most of it out. Same story everyday.
I can't stand the fact that these kids refuse to eat for me and know that snacks are waiting in the car when they get picked up.
Today I gave carrot sticks and light ranch dip for snack. Pretty sure I will be throwing it away.
I feel these kids are so hungry but I am tired of them not eating and then come afternoon snack they
inhale graham crackers, goldfish, or animal crackers.
I am done. I want to stop offering the crackers and cookies and only offer the healthy option.
Ugh. Thanks for the vent.
