The U.S. Department of Agriculture has proposed new guidelines for school breakfasts and lunches that would lower the amount of sodium and sugar being served.
Feb. 5, 2023 --
Added sugars in school meal foods such as breakfast cereals, flavored milks , grain-based desserts, and yogurt would need to be reduced starting in Fall 2025. For instance, flavored milk could have no more than 10 grams of added sugar per 8 fluid ounces, and breakfast cereal would be limited to no more than 6 grams of added sugar per ounce.
Reductions in sodium would be phased in. Salt in school breakfasts would need to be cut by 10% in 2025 and another 10% in 2027. Sodium in lunches would need to be cut 10% in 2025, 2027, and 2029.
