Actress Scarlett Johansson has written a letter to Congressman George Miller in support of healthy school lunches. The 25-year-old star, who has appeared in films such as The Other Boleyn Gir l and Lost In Translation , has asked Congress to make sure healthier food is available for kids in school lunchrooms. “I’m asking you to support the Healthy School Meals Act of 2010. It is our responsibility, as adults, to give schoolchildren the nutrients and vitamins they so vitally need, especially during school hours where their food intake may be monitored. I am so thankful that the National School Lunch Program exists and helps children around the nation get enough to eat. But right now, many of the foods served through this program do not support children’s healthy development.” If any of you watched Jamie Oliver’s show Sunday, what our kids are eating everyday is a serious problem.
