Students Protest Removal of Chocolate Milk From School Lunch Menu

A group of students were not happy with their school district’s recent decision to remove chocolate milk from the lunch menu, so they galvanized and staged their own outdoor protest. The group effort worked to bring chocolate milk back, albeit in a very limited capacity. The student body backlash took place last Friday at Sierra Vista K-8, part of the Vacaville Unified School District in Vacaville, California. Turns out, the sugar content was the reason the milk was pulled from the menu. It led to somewhat of a compromise between officials and the chocolate milk aficionados: Chocolate milk would be offered one day per week every two weeks.
