Petition to establish an added sugars standard for school meals and competitive foods

To align the school meal programs with the DGA and reduce added sugars consumption among children, CSPI, the American Heart Association, and the American Public Health Association respectfully request that the USDA Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) establish an added sugars standard for school meals and competitive foods to align with the 2020-2025 DGA recommendation limiting added sugars consumption to less than 10 percent of total calories.
