    Here is an essay I wrote for school that I want to share with you so you change yoyur mind about chocolate milk.
    Chocolate milk
    Dear Dr Wehrmann,
    Please keep chocolate milk. There are many beverages that are much worse than chocolate milk. Chocolate milk is good for you because it has lots of vitamins, like Vitamin A and D. It also has calcium, carbohydrates, 8 grams of protein and other nutritional values. Which is good for you, Right? It also fulfills our dietary guidelines by giving us the important stuff we need. So please keep chocolate milk and read my persuasive argument on why I think we should keep chocolate milk at our school cafeteria.
    I think that chocolate milk encourages people who don’t like regular milk to drink milk. So that is one way that kids and adults will get the vitamins and calcium they need. For an example, I know that my brother won’t drink regular milk. He only will drink chocolate milk. I know that there is a lot of kids in his class that are just like him. Younger kids his age are growing so quickly they need the calcium. This is the main reason why I think chocolate milk has to stay on the menu at our school cafe.
    Another reason why I think we should keep chocolate milk is because it has lots of nutritious ingredients included in it. I also feel that it is pretty much the only sweet thing you get at school if you are ordering hot lunch. I think that students deserve one good treat throughout the long 6 hour day.
    It also does not have that much sugar in it. 21 grams is the amount it has normally in one cup of chocolate milk. The quantity of that cup is 250 grams. To most people that seems like a lot of sugar. In other beverages such as Coca Cola there is 39 grams of sugar in only a 12 ounce/355 ml can. There is 140 calories in Coca Cola and 130 calories in chocolate milk. Also, Coca Cola has no vitamins. Which means that chocolate milk has a much better chance of not making you fat compared to Coca Cola. Even though that is not too much of a big difference it still is better for you.
    Children need calcium, vitamin D and protein to help them grow! Chocolate milk also helps us fulfill our dietary guidelines. Another reason why I think chocolate milk should be kept is because it doesn't have much corn syrup or other unhealthy properties. Even if it has a little, its nutritional values basically floods out the negative properties.
    Another thing I read about chocolate milk is that people drink chocolate milk for a recovery drink after working out. They do this because it rehydrates their body and has important vitamins and calcium they need. Drinking it at school will give us the same benefits especially after gym or recess.
    In conclusion, if we serve chocolate milk, than most likely I think kids will drink more milk and get the vitamins and calcium that they need. It rehydrates our bodies after recess and gym. Also, it adds a treat to our day at school. So keep chocolate milk!
    Sincerely,
    Anthony Haux

    Chocolate milk should stay if you want to worry about sugars and fats you should really address the real problem pizza,deep fried goods and even worse Instant made mash potatoes and gravy and a lot of juices now have lots of gravy cause of concentrate and the over inclusion of grains in our diet and chocolate milk is really good for after a workout and is good and tasty and kids like it and won’t throw it out like other items and actually gives them nutrition,now I your ant to curb obesity why not make gym class mandatory for all years of primary schooling ? It would get them out doing activity and burning calories

      Kids need healthy fats that are in milk, butter and cheese, avacado, and other foods. They need it in order for brain development. By serving almost no healthy fats, kids brains can't develop as easily.
