Encouraging news: 'Healthy, organic and cheap school lunches? Order up'

OK, I'm a bit late to this one, but it's good news (sometimes hard to find lately!) and worth posting:

USA Today, Dec. 2: Healthy, organic and cheap school lunches? Order up

... it's big news when someone tries, even on a small scale, to feed kids well for under $3 a pop.
... For the first time, a small, privately held start-up is pushing to do just that: producing what are by all accounts fresh, healthful, all-natural school meals for just under $3 apiece. Starting with just one school in spring 2006, Revolution Foods has quietly grown year by year and now delivers about 45,000 breakfasts, lunches and snacks daily to 235 public and private schools in California, Colorado and the District of Columbia.


The page also has links to the recent investigative articles the paper did on school lunches.
