  10. The value of milk on the menu • A study showed eliminating flavored milk from elementary schools resulted in a dramatic drop in milk consumption (35%). 1 • It can be difficult and expensive to replace the nutrients lost from decreased milk intake in school meals. • Even if a lunch included orange juice fortified with calcium and vitamin D, a school would still need to add ½ cup of diced cantaloupe, 3.5 ounces of apple with skin and ½ cup of cooked baked beans to a child’s meal just to make up the nutrients lost in one glass of milk.  • And, those additional foods add 171 more calories to a child’s diet than simply drinking chocolate milk. • 1The Impact on Student Milk Consumption and Nutrient Intakes From Eliminating Flavored Milk in Schools, Milk Processor Education Program, 2010.
