In an effort to combat obesity and increase healthfulness among students, the school board is considering changing the cafeteria menu to avoid junk food and provide only low-fat meals and snacks. They are also considering eliminating the soda machines. Supporters say this plan will help students slim down and have more energy for school. Opponents say this plan is unfair to students who will now have no choices in the cafeteria and will cost the school a great deal of money because soda machines generate money for the school.

In your opinion, should the cafeteria change the cafeteria menu?
