Firenze Sage: The food police have come for your salami and cheese [another mother, same school]

Another mother with another 4 year old from the same elementary school in North Carolina came forward with a similar story about public schools rejecting home made lunches. The same teacher is involved.

In the story making headlines last week, North Carolina school officials said it was a misunderstanding when a preschoolerâ€s homemade lunch was sent home for not meeting nutritional standards.

In late January, 2012 Diane Zambrano sent her daughter to school with a salami and cheese sandwich on a wheat bun with apple juice. Her 4-year-old daughter, Jazlyn, is in the same West Hoke Elementary School class as the little girl who made national news last week. That child was sent to school with a home made turkey and cheese sandwich.

When Zambrano picked daughter Jazlyn up from she was told by Jazlynâ€s teacher that the homemade lunch did not meet the necessary guidelines. Jazlyn was sent to the cafeteria.

The lunch Zambranoâ€s daughter got in the cafeteria? Chicken nuggets, a sweet potato, bread and milk. “She never eats breakfast or lunch at the school,” said her mother.
