i think it’s shocking, that number. 200 schools is a lot, you could only imagine if even just half the population of students of each school had eaten those infected peanuts.. i think more care and precaution should be done regarding school meal programs

You think more care and precaution should be done about school food programs?? Stick with the topic. This isn’t about school lunch programs being unsafe. Schools are very cautious about their food programs and when they receive a product they expect it to be safe. Maybe your statement should be “I think more care and precaution should be done regarding the manufacturing of peanut products.”
