A software package produced by Cybersoft Technologies allows parents to restrict what types of food their children are allowed to purchase at school and monitor it remotely. Parents can make restrictions such as no desserts and if little Johnny slides that sweet treat on his tray the cashier is notified and back goes the dessert. Parents can tailor the child’s diet by making exceptions, such as desserts allowed on Fridays. I can already see a thriving black market for Twinkies at the schools.
