Are schools just not teaching anything about nutrition anymore?  I just graduated in 2013. The only talks about nutrition were in very early elementary school, once but MAYBE twice...and it was just going over that old flawed mess the food pyramid and what it suggested we eat at every meal (meat, dairy, etc) including amounts. After that? Nothing. Not even when I took a year long 'home ec' type class that was like 95% food and cooking and the rest was using a sewing machine to make a pillow case. I didn't learn shit.
