In an effort to make food in schools healthier, some school districts have actually banned cupcakes at school birthday celebrations.

My dad was allergic to all food dyes, diagnosed in the 80s.

It doesn't work at not hurting feelings in my case.

Since when is it a "right" to celebrate your child's birthday IN school?

Um, think or know?

Yeah, I figured that. But I was just thinking that if you ever find yourself in a serious jam and in need of some kind of treat for a large group of kids, this recipe is the fastest easiest cookie-like one I've ever followed.

I always think to myself "Self, just because you INVITE 40 kids, doesn't mean they'll all show up."

whats with the insulting nick name? this board is full of crazy emotional parents.
i didnt say to ban sugar from them completely..what you do with your child is your business but why on earth does it need to come into a classroom?
i also never once said it was going to make them obese..i said it was the attitude of parents who threw a fit bc cupcakes werent going to be aloud in the classroom that contributed to the way society has become.
a classroom is a place for children to learn....not for birthday parties. that is what most people agree on at least.
