Are American School Lunches Actually Healthy Ep 1 | Food Service Director: Dawn Carr Joins the Show!

Author: Arav Kapoor July 2, 2024 Duration: 10:31

In this episode of The GeoPolitical, I am joined by the food service director of Whitsons Culinary Group at Fairfield Public Schools in Fairfield, Connecticut to kick off a long series discussing weather American School Lunches are actually as health a they seem to be given many different economic and political factors that may be weighing into the healthy futures of our coming generations! Check out my updated website here: https://www.thegeopolitical.net/home A quick disclaimer concerning the interview: Mrs. Carr is employed directly for the private organization, Whitsons Culinary Group, not Fairfield Public Schools but rather acts as a middle man between district employed food service employees and Whistons employed people like herself. As such, the information she shares may pertain to a general positive outlook toward Whitsons Culinary Group, a group providing lunch services through this part of the nation, rather than that of the people of Connecticut, the state department of education and the Fairfield Public Schools district. Regardless, please enjoy the interview. Happy Summer Political Peeps. :)
