Vegetables left over by students at a Los Angeles school


FILE - This Jan. 17, 2012, file photo shows vegetables left over by students on their cafeteria trays at the Roosevelt High School in Los Angeles. Americans blame too much screen time and cheap fast-food for fueling the nation's obesity epidemic, but a poll finds that they’re split on how the government should help.
