Oatmeal is now being offered regularly on D11 breakfast menus where breakfast is served. Meeting USDA Regulations CSSD11 has responded to the Healthy Americans Act by implementing Nutrient Standard Menu planning that emphasizes healthy, lower fat school meals.

It also requires compliance with specific targets for energy/calories, percent of total calories from fat, percent of total calories from saturated fat, protein, calcium, iron, vitamin A and vitamin C.
