PATNA, India (AP) — Nineteen children have died and more are sick after eating free meals at a primary school in eastern India.
Bihar state official Amarjit Sinha says 28 children have been hospitalized in Patna, the state capital. Ten of them are in serious condition. The children are age 8 to 11.


They fell ill soon after eating meals in the school on Tuesday in Masrakh, a village 80 kilometers (50 miles) north of Patna.
The meal was cooked in the school kitchen.


P.K. Sahi, the state education minister, says a preliminary investigation suggests the food had traces of phosphorous, which is used to preserve rice and wheat.

Many state governments in India have launched midday meal programs for poor children. Malnutrition is one of the major health concerns among Indian children.

Funny, the spiced mix of fly maggots, millipedes, pill bugs and insect wings of questionable origin never hurt any of them before.

I thought maybe some of them had ingested water from their sacred river the Ganges ::)

19 children???

Surely another case of needing better gun control laws.

Sad story.

That said, if I won an all expenses paid trip there, at the best hotel, I would decline.

Something about that third eye, and their whole society, that I just can't handle.

Everyone knows school lunches are bad for you. Pretty bad that it actually killed 19 children. I really hope there was no foul play going on, but this area isn't exactly known for having the healthiest of meal plans.
