From Times Wire Reports

A resolution encouraging schools to offer a vegetarian option on lunch menus was approved by the state Assembly on Monday.

The resolution, by Assemblyman Joe Nation (D-San Rafael), was approved 65-11.

It calls on state education and health officials to develop a school lunch menu plan that includes vegetarian meals prepared without meat products, and vegan options that exclude meat, eggs and dairy. The menu plans would be voluntarily phased in over four years.
