Why do liberal food police want to ban chocolate milk in schools when many medical organizations say it is OK?
Many, including the School Nutrition Association, American Academy of Pediatrics, American Dietetic Association, American Heart Association, and National Medical Association, argue that the nutritional value of flavored low-fat or skim milk outweighs the harm of added sugar. Milk contains nine essential nutrients including calcium, vitamin D and protein.
“Chocolate milk is soda in drag,” said Ann Cooper, director of nutrition services for the Boulder Valley School District in Louisville, Colo., which has banned flavored milk. “It works as a treat in homes, but it doesn’t belong in schools.”

My daughters doctor actually told us to allow her to have chocolate milk. If her weight isn’t a problem, why ban her from drinking it?
IDK but nooooooooo. Chocolate milk is great! some kids will not drink white milk, at least chocolate milk gets them to drink it.
