"'I like everything except for the cheese,' said Scott Huynh, 10. 'Cupcakes make you really fat, and vegetables keep you going longer, and also you won't die early if you eat them.' Jake Temple, 10, said he didn't really miss eating cupcakes. 'The vegetables actually taste kinda weird, but they give you more energy than fatty food.'"Some students and parents, however, think the ban on birthday sweets goes too far. The general sentiment among the group is that, while limiting sweets is important, having a cupcake at a birthday celebration isn't going to cause obesity in anyone.
