Kids do need sugar to grow so some of that sugar actually helps them,also even more helps them become fit. Here are three reasons why they shouldn’t ban chocolate milk - It helps you become fit, more people will drink milk and because it’s healthy. My first reason they shouldn’t ban chocolate milk is because it helps you become fit. Most people will say that chocolate milk could never help you because of how much sugar is in it, but at our school Argonaut, our plain 1% white milk only has 2 grams less sugar than our fat-free chocolate milk-Chocolate milk 30 grams of sugar Plain milk 28 grams of sugar, so it’s pretty much the same.Did you know sugar in it repairs …show more content…
What people don’t ever notice is that our school’s chocolate milk has no fat in it, because our school serves fat-free chocolate milk. The schools whose chocolate milk was banned were selling low-fat chocolate milk instead, and it doesn’t have all the good types of fat in it, so that was one of the reasons Jamie Oliver got most of the schools to ban chocolate milk. In an Australian news clip about Jamie Oliver, a person says, “White milk has vitamin D I don’t know what that other milk has”. The answer to her question is that our school’s chocolate milk has vitamin A and D like it says right there on the top left and the top right of the carton. Mrs.Dobbins from the midwest dairy council says “the fact is that chocolate and other flavored milks have the same 9 essential nutrients as white milk, and a small amount of added sugar compared to other beverages”, in the article ”NUTRITION IN DISGUISE” published by Mannie
One reason we should not serve chocolate milk is there is too much sugar.

Also, “When kids drink just

When defined by healthy foods our government tells us that we need to intake a certain amount of vegetables, fruits, healthy protein, whole grains, and dairy products and to maintain low amounts of fatty oils and sugary drinks to maintain a healthy lifestyle. When we take a look, Dairy products is one of those we need to intake daily to reach the sufficient amount of calcium that is said that is needed for our bodies. Were brought up to believe we need to drink several glasses a day to get the calcium that is needed for strong bones and other beneficial qualities you take when you consume dairy.

Since the beginning of time, people have been drinking milk. Even today you will find a gallon of milk in almost every refrigerator in America. Milk is, and has always been, a staple of our diet. Because it contains essential proteins, carbohydrates, fats, minerals and vitamins, milk is considered one of nature's perfect foods. Unfortunately, throughout the last century milk has been subjected to many forms of modern processing practices, which deprive milk from many of its natural qualities and benefits. Therefore many essential vitamins and enzymes are lost. Processing milk has altered one of nature’s perfect foods and changed it into something nature did not intend. Because of the abundant health benefits in raw milk, this report will explain why it should be made legal for consumers to buy throughout the United States.
According to Melissa Dobbins a nutritionist,¨ At schools the kids will drink six or seven crates of chocolate milk for every one crate of white milk. By saying that it proves that chocolate milk is preferred more than white milk Which means they will get needed nutrients. Secondly, when schools switch to only white milk the milk consumption drops by thirty-five percent, according to the Western Dairy Association. This shows that kids will prefer no milk over plain milk, and once again they won´t get their needed nutrients. Lastly, white milk has no flavor that makes kids running back for more but the delicious chocolate milk will keep secretly giving the kids the nutrients they need. This shows that chocolate milk is liked more by
However, instead of making raw milk sound good, he tries to make pasteurized milk sound bad. Americans always have some kind of “fad” diet and the majority of them desire to better health so Reidy plays at that to interject his opinion. He also mentions religion multiple times throughout the article and says “Real milk comes to us exactly as God designed it” (Reidy, “The Country that Banned Milk”). Religious people wouldn't want to change the ways of God, so Reidy words it so bluntly, almost saying “You are going against God if you drink pasteurized milk”; no Christian wants to go against their God. Religion plays one of the biggest roles in this article and Reidy visits it often. Reidy also uses bible quotes and relates them back to what is going on in the milk industry, making it seem like a much bigger deal than it is. According to him, the government is playing a much too large role in Americans milk purchases. He says “a government that would interfere with this right stepping beyond its natural limits” . He wants his readers to be able to see that a government that is oppressive to the extent that they would regulate perfectly good milk, should be stopped. He also asks his audience questions like “Doesn’t a man have a God-given right to the milk his herd produces?” in order to get a structured response from his audience. Reidy also offers the sentiment of the “Right to Milk” which gives off the impression that our rights are being infringed upon, which relates to every American. When somebody tries to take their rights away, Americans riot. They fight for what they believe in and Reidy hoped that if he got the entirety of America on his side, maybe they would fight for the legality of raw milk. However, he knew he had some convincing to do even
The studies have shown and proven that the ban of this could help out children immensely and could prevent long life of depression and no confidence. Obesity is a major topic in United States, only because we have so much UN-healthy choices surrounding us. Especially in more populated areas of the United States. It’s hard to find a “healthy” restaurant and be satisfied with what you eat. Most people leave the place feeling guilty or UN-satisfied with their choices. It’s so much easier to order some French fries and a whopper then it is to cut up carrots and make a veggie burger. It’s been proven and needs to take action. The ban could help us all.
In 2013, about 7.4 million tons of chocolate is expected to be consumed globally, totaling to nearly $110 billion (Pardomuan, Nicholson). I can honestly say that I will be one of the many people who contribute immensely to those massive quantities. Chocolate has always been one of my guilty pleasures, leading me to consider myself a “chocoholic.” After 20 years of eating chocolate, I learned there is more to chocolate than meets the eye. Many chemicals compose each delicious piece creating multiple psychological effects on the mind. With the knowledge of the chemical and psychological influences that chocolate has on the human mind and body and my own curiosity as to why I love it so much, this led me to ask: Why is chocolate considered such a pleasurable and craveable food?
Did you know that about eighty-eight percent of North Americans have a computer in their household? How about the fact that the average American eats about twenty-five pounds of candy each year? These statistics show that both computer usage and junk food consumption are a big part of many lives today. This brings up the question of which would be worse: being banned from computer use for a year, or being banned from eating sweets for a year. Some may say they can’t live without eating sweets, but others may say they couldn’t live without using a computer. While some people may disagree, being banned from sweets for a year instead of computer usage would be the best choice between the two.
Introduction The 58 million pounds of chocolate eaten on chocolate the drenched holiday of Valentines Day is likely made from cocoa beans from West Africa. The Ivory Coast, also known as Cote D'ivoire in Africa is the source of about 35 percent of the world’s cocoa production. These cocoa beans were likely harvested by unpaid child workers that are being held captive on plantations as slaves. Chocolate companies use these cocoa plantations as their cocoa source for their chocolate products. And since the companies want to maximize their profit, they push plantation owners to lower prices, causing plantations to cut price any way possible (Philpott).

Desserts can trigger severe problems. The highest risk developing health trouble is becoming overweight or obese.

According to Cameron Keady with TFK and TIME Reporting, American kids consume more than twenty teaspoons of sugar per day and adults take in about 50% more sugar onto this day than they did in the 1970s. Food deserts are in an urban area of which it is difficult to buy good quality fresh food. Living in a food desert area, it is more convenient to buy sweets. I say this because low-income people have a difficult time to find food that meets their dietary restrictions and sweets are always on the low-cost. This means it is more affordable for low-income people to buy sugary foods than fresh organic foods. HIH News in Health said, “About 15% of calories in the American adult diet comes from added sugars.” This is about twenty-two teaspoons of extra sugar a day. All these desserts will cause us numerous major consequence in the long-term. Many people are obese because of how they eat. Being overweight is dangerous and it can even result in deadly conditions.
