Feeding 26 Million Children a Day: Can Government Regulations Improve School Nutrition?
From setting nutritional guidelines for school lunches to its oversight of genetically modified crops, the government's role in regulating food was the subject of the Duke Law Journal's 37th annual Administrative Law Conference on February 2, 2007.
Experts in food policy examined the possibility that unhealthy food served in public schools contributes to America's current epidemic of childhood obesity, and how administrative regulation might curb it. Other presenters explored the role the Food and Drug Administration and other agencies should have in regulating and labeling conventional, organic, and genetically modified foods. Papers presented at the conference will be published in volume 56 of the Duke Law Journal.
