Smart Snacks in Schools

Smart Snacks in Schools standards were introduced in 2014, requiring all foods sold at schools participating in national meal programs to meet nutrition standards. This applies to food sold a la carte, in the school store, in vending machines, and in any other venues where food is sold to students. In states which are required to follow these standards, students consumed less fat and added sugar. Beginning in 2016, marketing for products not meeting these Smart Snacks standards was also prohibited on school property. However, this does not apply to brand marketing.

7 CFR Parts 210 and 220 Nutrition Standards in the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs

National mandatory standards for food available in schools. This final rule updates the meal patterns and nutrition standards for the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs to align them with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. This rule requires most schools to increase the availability of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free and low-fat fluid milk in school meals; reduce the levels of sodium, saturated fat and trans fat in meals; and meet the nutrition needs of school children within their calorie requirements. These improvements to the school meal programs, largely based on recommendations made by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies, are expected to enhance the diet and health of school children, and help mitigate the childhood obesity trend.

The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act is a federal statute signed into law by President Barack Obama on December 13, 2010. The legislation authorized funding and set policy for USDA's core child nutrition programs. The statute required the USDA to create updated school meal and competitive food standards that aligned with the concurrent version of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2010). It required meals served in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) or School Breakfast Program (SBP) to meet these guidelines. This has led to significant improvements in the nutritional profile of school meals.
