During a recent government meeting, Councilman Lupien raised concerns regarding the nutritional quality of food provided to students in local schools. He inquired about the health content of the meals, emphasizing the need for transparency in the nutritional information available to parents and guardians.

Council member Pattison expressed strong disapproval of the current food offerings, citing the school district's own admission that the quality of food is subpar. \"The kids know the food is bad. The school district knows the food is bad. We know the food is bad. Why are we buying bad food?\" Pattison questioned, highlighting a disconnect between the district's acknowledgment of the issue and the continued procurement of low-quality meals.

Despite some improvements noted in the food quality, Pattison remained adamant that the meals still do not meet acceptable standards. \"I am not gonna sit here and vote to feed these babies bad food,\" he declared, indicating his intention to vote against the food procurement unless significant changes are made.

The discussion underscores ongoing concerns about student nutrition and the responsibility of local government to ensure that children receive healthy meals in schools. The meeting concluded with a call for further questions, but the sentiment around the food quality issue remained a focal point of concern among council members.
