British Columbia schools in British Columbia are working to create healthy eating environments by replacing junk-food with healthy food and beverage choices in school vending machines, cafeteria, stores, and school fundraisers. For detailed information, review the Guidelines for Food and Beverage Sales in BC Schools. The revised Guidelines also contain stricter nutrition criteria for the consumption of calories, fat, salt, and sugar to support healthy food and beverage choices.
