The food fascists have outlawed a time honored way of generating cash for schools:

In California it’s still legal to sell cupcakes, cookies and brownies in a bakery … but not at a school bake sale.
That fundraising slice of Americana – loaded with sugar and fat – has been banned in California schools by government order, reports CBS News correspondent John Blackstone.
At Piedmont High School, principal Randall Booker has enforced a zero tolerance policy for what used to be a campus tradition.
“I love the bake sales,” he said. “I eat them myself. But there are state laws that we just have to abide by.”
To combat the epidemic of childhood obesity, new state nutrition guidelines strictly limit the fat, sugar and total calories of any food sold on campus during school days – even before and after school.

They’re even making the kids eat spinach! How inhuman can you get? This is what you get for voting Democrats into office: loss of freedoms and nachos.
