It shall be the purpose of the food service program to provide well-balanced meals that are nourishing at moderate prices in pleasant surroundings. The program also provides a teaching situation in which the foods that children need for proper growth and development are served in an appetizing manner so they will be readily accepted. The program contributes to the social education of the child by providing an opportunity to practice good table manners.
