Kudos to your wife. Backpack programs do more (in my experience) to make sure kids and their siblings get healthy meals than most things schools do. Give a kid some Nutella and fruit and some nutritional stuff to eat outside school. Even if it's just Campbell's vegetable soup in a can and some manadarin orange cups, it's better than top ramen and pizza rolls.
