According to results of a recent study, people underestimate children’s willingness to eat healthy foods. While previous studies have shown that students prefer fatty foods and that healthy meals cost schools more, a group of economists from the University of Minnesota found that schools serving healthier lunches did not see a falloff in demand. In addition, the higher labor costs associated with preparing the healthy meals was offset by the lower cost of healthy ingredients like fresh fruits and vegetables. Childhood obesity is considered a growing “epidemic” in Western countries.
