But being bored turns out to be the least of their problems.

Some people contemplate that schools should alms only beneficial drinks such as white milk, water, and natural fruit juice. I disagree with this policy for the following reasons. The sales will dramatically drop, the school will dissipate money, and the students will take on a dissatisfactory eating and drinking habits. I am not saying that invigorating drinks are unsatisfactory, it is just unpleasant when it is the only drink in the selection. Offering just alimentative drinks will force students to desire sugary drinks even more, therefore the students will gorge on it when they get the chance resulting in atrocious eating and drinking habits.
Most of us don't care for health 'or' that we get fat from drinking soda. We all know most students don't care for their health, which means they shouldn't be forced to consume what they don't want. Nobody would like that change, and it wouldn't sell. Students just want to drink the sodas 'and' Gatorades they have now. No one has complained about what we have now.
