NMPF Statement on Continued Allowance of Low-Fat Flavored Milk in Schools
Fri, 04 Feb 2022 09:00:08 CST
From NMPF President and CEO Jim Mulhern:
"Ensuring kids have access to the nutrients they need to grow and thrive is a top priority for dairy. We thank USDA for the rule's provision that maintains schools' ability to serve low-fat, 1% flavored milk. One percent flavored milk is not only fully consistent with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, it is also a nutrient-dense, low-fat healthy option kids will choose to drink. I would also like to thank Representatives Joe Courtney and G.T. Thompson for their long-time leadership on this issue. We look forward to continuing to work with them, USDA, and others to help ensure everyone has access to nutritious food."
