Mom "lunch shamed" for giving her kid Oreos

Really?

http://abcnews.go.com/Health/mom-lunch-shamed-school-packing-oreos-daughter/story?id=30674158

Leeza Pearson was out of fruit and vegetables one day last week, so she tucked a pack of Oreos in her daughter Natalee's lunch and sent her off to school at the Children's Academy in Aurora, Colorado.

Pearson said she was stunned when her 4-year-old came home later in the day with the cookies untouched and a sternly worded note from the school.

mentioned in the video scare me way more than a package of Oreos. Meals should not come in a "kit" unless you are eating it in a foxhole.
