## Underlying public sources for the earlier school-food research

- [USDA — School Nutrition and Meal Cost Study](https://www.fna.usda.gov/research/school-meals/nutrition-meal-cost-study) — food and labor each ~45% of school meal costs in school year 2014–15.
- [Michigan State / Department of Education — 2024–25 10 Cents a Meal Legislative Report](https://msu-prod.dotcms.cloud/resources/10-cents-a-meal-for-michigan-s-kids-and-farms-2024-2025-legislative-report) — labor and transportation funding for local food purchasing.
- [USDA — 2023 Farm to School Census](https://www.fna.usda.gov/research/f2s/census2023) — school sourcing and market context.

## Verification notes

1. “Verified or closely matched” means the linked source supports the topic or statistic; the original hidden source URL could not be reconstructed directly from the exported identifiers.
2. The reference `turn0file0` points to the earlier report titled *U.S. Public School Food System: Supply Chains, Procurement, Operations, Nutrition Outcomes, and Local Sourcing*, which was located in the user’s Library but has no public web URL.
3. US Foods figures are from the fiscal-2025 SEC Form 10-K: distribution cost is **$2.638 billion**, rounded in the Lunchbreakers report to $2.64 billion.
4. The FDA published a 2026 Food Code after the older 2022 edition; states may still use prior editions. FSIS retail limits also update periodically.
5. Some linked references are now more authoritative replacements or companion publications rather than the precise URLs originally accessed.
