Nutrition Month falls on the month of July. The Schools (especially public schools) celebrates nutrition month by letting the students bring any vegetables they want or sometimes the teacher would assign them what veggies to bring and they would cook and eat it together at school.
Nowadays, kids do not eat veggies anymore. They prefer junk foods and other unhealthy foods. That is why for those parents who are wise enough, they let their children bring the baon that they made and they do not give their children money (except for the fare for the Jeep or tricycle).
There is one school here in Davao who banned the school canteen and other vendors to sell junk food and some beverages. Instead, they let them sell kakanin which is good for the students health.
I’ve seen a lot of high school and college students who spend their money for online games instead. I hope that it would come to their minds that they should eat well or their health is more important.
