Carbonated beverages are listed in the regulations as a food of minimal nutritional value. As such, their sale is prohibited in the serving and eating areas during the meal service. Regulations cannot prohibit the sale of foods of minimal nutritional value outside of the meal service, but local schools have the authority to do so, and many have adopted such restrictions.
