Junk Food in Schools?

Most schools do not let kids eat in class. At lunch the meals are as healthy as the cooks can get. But, this could be bad for students. Believe it or not, there are pros to junk food in schools. We all know that it tastes good, but that is just the beginning. Most of the problems from "unhealthy" food happens if you eat it regularly, or often. Our school could let us bring out junk food or serve a little dessert sometimes without making us fat.

The pros of junk food are not only for kids, but for the whole school. Junk food is quicker to make and is a lot easier to. This way the cooks would have more time preparing other stuff, cleaning, or taking break. Just because the food is quick does not mean it tastes bad, it is he best of both worlds. Also, if you are serving the food for lunch you do not need all of the preservatives and oils that make it have a longer shelf life. You are just serving at lunch at it will not have to be saved for long. Another pro is that it offers a change in routine. The food does not cause problems if it is not to often, like every day. 

But there are cons to junk food to. Obesity can be caused by junk food if it is eaten to often or if to much of it is eaten. Unhealthy ingredients are in junk food, such as to much sodium, sugar, dye, oils, or fat. Other health issues are high blood pressure, liver problems, weak immune system, and kidney problems. Sometimes kids do not get all the nutrients they  in junk food. Some tests have shown that it can affect preformance. The sodium or sugar causes a spike of energy making them over-reactive and then a loss of energy follows. Those are the major cons of junk food.
There is a debate in many schools about if junk food should be allowed. Many people don't think it should because of all the cons from the ad ingredients. Almost all if not all of the problems from junk food come if you eat it to much. I am not saying we should have it everyday. We could have school dessert once a week, so we don't eat to much. Junk food is just normal, unless we eat it like more than once a day.
Most of the cons from "unhealthy" food also come when you do not exercise enough. Every kid in school has or has had gym this year. We also have recess almost every day where we exercise outside. We can burn the calories to prevent being fat. Similarly, we will get the exercise we need so we can improve coordination, refresh our brains, and improve on work. A study shows that if you work and then exercise and go back to work you will be smarter.
Last, but not least, junk food is not the only food that can harm you. To much of anything is bad, even fruits or veggetables. Did you know, to much carrots can make you orange! Kids can pick what foods they get in the lunch line. We are forced to get at least one healthy thing, but we don't eat it. Most kids don;t chose a healthy item anyway, so what is the point. The school could make it so you only get junk food if you eat the healthy stuff. There are many solutions to the cons of junk food, so we should be able to have it in school.
