Lunch ladies are getting a MAHA makeover. The Food and Drug Administration’s $17 million pilot program aimed at helping schools serve MAHA-approved meals to students is up and running — and already reportedly seeing results. FDA Administrator Marty Makary told The Post that nationwide, up to 70% of children’s diets now come from ultra-processed foods, which are often loaded with salt, refined sugars, cholesterol-spiking fats and a slew of lab-made additives you wouldn’t normally find in a home kitchen.
