Fast food chains and junk food should be banned from school cafeterias.

Thank you for your response As a road map I'll point out some key points before addressing my opponent's case. 1. My oppenent has not even touched on my contention, therefore he has dropped it. In debate, silence is consent. He as agreed to my points and cannot bring them back up. Con's contention's impacts outweighs Pro's. On to Con's (I'll dissected it by paragraphs): 1. I'm sorry to say that I don't understand Canadian lunch system. But due to news proclaiming about schools lunches in America we'll be debating from an American view. If you wish to continue in Canada, then this is a whole new debate; perhaps next time you could define your terms. But in the US we are financially tight. Especially CA, where I live, we are seriously tight on money (http://cbs2.com...). Your source never explains how this balanced meal is cheaper than fast food. And there is no explanations on how your sources outweighs my Lee example. 2. http://www.diabetes.org... This source is much more accurate because it is backed by the government rather than a group, who can simply make believe to recruit others for their cause. 3. Scientists are also unsure if eating too much is a factor. Exercise is promoted. And metabolism is heretitary ("Some disorders of metabolism have a strong genetic component." - http://ghr.nlm.nih.gov...) Therefore being overweight can be solved and is genetic. In a majority of the cases heredity is the common factor. Argument stands. 4. Key word "can", "may be" and "believe." It is not confirmed that ADHD is linked to food additives. This argument still stands. 5. "Nutrition tables are mandated by the government." Pro's argument here isn't well explained. So please read my argument (Fast food chains do give plops about health, that's why they have grown public awareness about their meals, they have nutrition tables, advertisements, etc. If they didn't care then meat shouldn't be inspected and hygiene isn't valued. Children gorge on these foods after school outside of campus, that has no relevance to school's cafeterias. Foods children buy after school are not monitored by the district.) Because nutrition tables are mandated schools will also need to mandate what food comes in, therefore my argument stands. And please explain your purpose in defining advertisements because I don't see a point. 6. No source, my argument stands. And where do kids eat after school anyway, particularly teens? I usually have an In-N-Out burger and fries after school and before track practice. 7. So you do agree this is invalid with this, awesome. Oh and your chef source also states: "Then there are labor costs which typically eat up 40% of a school district's budget." And the comments display the inaccuracy of the report by using a celebrity chef rather than a typical lunch lady to make others join the bandwagon. Voting issues (all relating to arguments in R2): Drops: Rebuttal on R2, 2nd paragraph, Rebuttal 2 is dropped. Rebuttal in R1, 1st paragraph. Con's contention 1. All these drops cannot be refuted because silence is consent. My impacts simply outweigh my opponent's. Thank you and I await your response.
