This is a whole grain spaghetti with or without meatballs . The sauce is a Red Pack vitamin enhanced tomato sauce. The sodium at 140mg is much lower than we previously used. Here are the ingredients: Tomato Concentrate (Water, Tomato Paste), Sugar, Soybean Oil, Potassium Chloride, Onion Powder, Salt, Citric Acid, Spice, Garlic Powder, Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Black Pepper, Vitamin E (DL-Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate), Natural Flavor, Vitamin A (Retinol Palmitate).
The meatballs are are processed, cooked and frozen by Tyson. Ingredients are: Ground beef (not more than 20% fat), water, bread crumbs (bleached wheat flour, salt, yeast, dextrose, and soybean oil), seasoning (salt, dehydrated onion, dehydrated celery, garlic powder, spices, soybean oil), tomato puree (tomatoes and citric acid), grated parmesan cheese [(cultured part-skim milk, salt and enzymes), cellulose powder, potassium sorbate], grated romano cheese made from cow's milk [(cultured pasteurized part-skim milk, salt and enzymes), cellulose powder, potassium sorbate]. They have 9g of fat (3 are saturated) and 450 mg of sodium.

Not sure what the cheese stick is but I believe it is low fat. The organic ranch dip is organic but full fat. The fruit is fresh.
October 24 is national Food Day. Food Day is a nationwide celebration and a movement for healthy,
affordable, and sustainable food. Go to foodday.org for details. To celebrate Food Day the NS Middle School we be holding a fresh fruit and veggie food drive. All donations will go to Island Harvest. islandharvest.org Please have your child bring in pre packaged fresh fruit or veggies. There will be boxes at the front and cafeteria entrance. This is something small but very much needed to help those in need of fresh food.
