The onsite cafeteria at Mount Anthony Union High School in Bennington, VT, is getting competition from the Southwest Vermont Career Development Center store, which is located in the same complex but is not governed by National School Lunch rules against competitive foods, reports the Bennington Banner. The technical school shares a building with the high school but it is its own district and supervisory union. The store is similar to the interior of a variety store but while it stopped selling soda a few years ago, it continues to sell items like candy bars, cinnamon buns, cookies, candies, chocolates and chips. The extensive story notes that at least two other high schools in the state same similar issues.
