  1. I Decline! North Carolina Department of Public InstructionSafe and Healthy Schools Support Division School Nutrition Services SectionRevised July 2014 Offer vs. Serve for Lunch and Breakfast USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.

  2. Overview USDA Memorandum SP45-2013a All components sufficiently offered Students select adequate components for reimbursable meals

  3. Let’s Review Offer vs. Serve Definitions • Food component— • One of five food groups that are part of the USDA reimbursable meal pattern • Food item— • A specific food offered within the five food components: baked chicken, applesauce, etc.

  4. Definition of “Item” • Regulatory definition: A food item is a specific food offered within the food components • For purposes of OVS, an item is the daily required minimum amount of each food component that a student can take.

  5. Lunch is Composed of 5 Components • Fruit • Vegetable • Grain • Meats/Meat Alternates • Milk

  6. Offer Versus Serve at Lunch Schools must offer 5 food components (milk, fruits, vegetables, grains, meat/meat alternates) in the amount required by the meal pattern for the grade group Students are allowed to decline 2 of the 5 required food components Fruits and Vegetables are 2 separate food components Students must select at least ½ cup of fruit or vegetable

  7. Lunch for K-5, 6-8, or K-8

  8. Grades 9-12 Lunch Meal

  9. An update from USDA Memo SP10-2012 • The menu planner may split a component into multiple items. Under OVS, the student must take at least the daily minimum required by the meal pattern. Let’s look at some examples…..

  10. OVS Example for K-5 The lunch offered: spaghetti sauce with 1 oz eq meat, 2 ounce equivalents of grains: spaghetti (1 oz eq) with a dinner roll (1 oz eq), ½ cup tomatoes, ½ cup beans, ½ cup mixed fruit, and milk Since the minimum daily grains requirement for grades K-5 is only 1 oz eq, the student may select either the dinner roll (1 oz eq) or the spaghetti (1 oz eq) and count as meeting the grains component under OVS. This also applies to the meat/meat alternate component.

  11. Example for grades 9-12 The lunch offered: spaghetti sauce with 2 oz eq meat, 2 ounce equivalents of grains: spaghetti noodles (1 oz eq) with a dinner roll (1 oz eq), ½ cup tomatoes, ½ cup beans, ½ cup mixed fruit, fresh peach, and milk Since the minimum daily grains requirement for grades 9-12 is 2 ozeq, the student must select both the dinner roll (1 oz eq) and the spaghetti (1 oz eq) to count as meeting the grains component under OVS. This also applies to the meat/meat alternate component.

  12. For OVS Lunch, the cashier must determine: • Did the student select at least ½ cup fruit or vegetable? • Did the student select at least 2 additional meal components that meet at least the minimum amount required by the meal pattern for the grade group?

  23. Questions about OVS at Lunch?

  24. OVS at Breakfast Three grade groups for planning breakfasts • K-5 • 6-8 • 9-12 Flexibility in menu planning at breakfast • All three grade group requirements overlap at breakfast • A single menu can be used for all groups

  25. Breakfast Meal Components • Fruits • Grains • Milk

  26. Remember correct menu planning… • OVS is optional for all grade groups • Must offer 4 food items if using OVS • Milk • Fruit/Vegetable/Juice • Grain • Additional item (i.e. Grain, Fruit, M/MA as substitute for grain)

  27. OVS Items • A large grain count may count as more than one food item for purposes of OVS in breakfast • e.g. 2 oz eq muffin = 2 food items • In addition to the 2 oz eq grain, at least 2 other food items must also be offered to have OVS • Student would not be able to decline the 2 oz eq grain item Example: • school offers muffin crediting as 2 oz eq, 1/2 cup applesauce, and 1 cup milk (student may decline applesauce or milk)

  28. OVS for breakfast Offer 4 items and… Student may decline one item.

  29. Grains Combinations and “extras” with OVS Grains-meat/meat alternate combination items • When counting the meat/meat alternate as a substitute for grains, a combo breakfast sandwich may count as two food items (i.e. 1 oz eq grain and 1 oz eq grain sub). • Consistency in menu planning is highly recommended!

  30. Grains and OVS:Allowing students to take two of the same grain item • If a menu planner offers two different 1 oz eq grain items at breakfast, a student may be allowed to take two of the same grain and count as two items. • It is at the discretion of the menu planner to allow duplicate selection. • Example: Planned menu includes milk and fruit, plus two grains: cereal (1 oz eq) and toast (1 oz eq). Student could select fruit and two cereals = 3 items (declines the milk).

  31. For OVS Breakfast, the cashier must determine: • Did the student select at least ½ cup fruit or vegetable? • Did the student select at least 2 additional food items designated by the menu planner?
