public comment from Kevin Kearney, who runs through his creds
You can find the main article he's citing by E.A. Bergman "The relationship of meal and recess schedule to plate waste in elementary schools" cited a lot on line, but I can't find the primary source.
He's running through the consumption of kids who have recess before lunch rather than after lunch: 17% more carbohydrates, 18% more protein, 9% more calories, 18% less vitamin C, 15% more iron, 35% more calcium
The research we had last week pulled out some of this, he's giving the rest, and also thinks that the 17% more carbohydrates may put kids to sleep.
"let's let them try it and see how it works..."
(which is the proposal)
