I had to do a double take on this one. Driving to Grass Valley on the Colfax Highway I saw this school sign. It appears that the Union Hill Elementary School is serving ice cream, and holding a health committee meeting at the same time! Tomorrow they’re having a board meeting. Wonder if they are going to talk about why the kids were hyper active with a sugar high from the ice cream on January 11? Or maybe the health committee is doing an experiment on serving kids sugar and fat and seeing what that does to their grades?
Just for fun, here’s a 4 once serving of Baskin Robbins chocolate ice cream: 22% fat, 11% sugar, no vitamins.
