The Christian Science Monitor notes that, “as teachers get ready for the new school year … they are probably noticing a wholesale change in the snacks they can get in their school’s vending machines. And they probably aren’t that happy about it.”

Students aren’t happy about it either. The full implications of the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Schools Act are being felt this year, and students and others are taking to Twitter to voice their opposition.
