Goodbye, pepperoni pizza? New state law to ban some ultraprocessed foods from school meals

A new California law is set to redefine ultraprocessed foods and ban certain items deemed 'of concern' from K-12 school meals starting in 2035. This is significant as it aims to promote healthier eating habits among students, potentially reducing health issues linked to poor diets. By addressing the quality of food served in schools, California is taking a proactive step towards improving children's nutrition and well-being.
