A win for pizza companies a loss for child nutrition. I love pizza like everyone else, but I am under no illusion that it is a vegetable. Sure pizza can be made healthier but the standard fare served at schools is high in saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, and low in fiber. Can a little tomato paste really make it a vegetable? NO!
