New Law Reintroduces Whole Milk in U.S. School Cafeterias
TL;DR
President Trump signed the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act, revoking Obama-era limits to allow whole and 2% milk (and nondairy options meeting nutrition standards) in schools participating in the National School Lunch Program, affecting about 30 million students. The rollout could begin this fall as schools adjust, and the move aligns with new Dietary Guidelines emphasizing full-fat dairy with no added sugars, though flavored milks may face restrictions under those guidelines.
