Read the following argumentative paragraph. Schools should do a better job of regulating what their students eat and drink on campus. Even though many schools no longer sell soda, the amount of sugar in many of the fruit juices offered rivals the amount of sugar in a soda. Additionally, schools often contract out their food sales to the cheapest bidder, so many of the menu items have fillers like gluten and soy, which some people are sensitive or allergic to. Also, some studies have shown that the obesity epidemic in this country begins as early as grade school. This argumentative paragraph lacks supporting evidence, and therefore has a weak argument. Which of the following would be the MOST appropriate piece of evidence to support the author's claim? A Some schools have opened coffee bars where they sell decaffinated drinks like decaf coffee and herbal teas alongside whole grain muffins. B Many studies have shown that schools who offer healthy alternatives to traditional menu items have a reduced number of obese students. C My school offers menu items like baked chicken strips, battered fish fillets, and bacon cheese fries as part of a healthy and balanced meal plan. D Many schools have changed the items in their vending machines from candy bars and chips to options like dried fruit slices and unsalted trail mix.
