Use Menu Item not Food Item at
Lunch
• Use of food item for both lunch and breakfast
creates confusion
• Use menu item instead of food item at lunch
• Use food item only at breakfast
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
10
Menu Item at Lunch
• Specific food offered to provide the five food
components
– Hamburger = 1 Menu Item with 2 food components,
M/MA & G
– ½ cup each of apple wedges, sliced canned
pineapple and a petite banana = 3 Menu Items of 1
food component
– 8 fluid oz. of Milk = 1 Menu Item of 1 food
component
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
11
Food Item at Breakfast
• A specific food offered within a food component
that is required in the meal pattern
• The food item(s) must be in the required
minimum serving size
– A 2 oz. Muffin = 1 oz eq Grains = 1 Food Item
– An orange or 4 fl. oz. juice or ½ cup of diced pears or
¼ cup apple chunks + ¼ cup grapes = ½ cup Fruit = 1
Food Item
– 8 oz fluid Milk = 1 Food Item
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
12
Menu Item
• Students must take all of the menu items that
provide the required minimum daily quantity
– Exception: ½ cup of F or V or combination = full
quantity of either the F or V component once in a
meal
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
13
Grade Groups
• K-5: OVS optional
• 6-8: OVS optional
• 9-12: OVS required at lunch, but optional at
breakfast
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
14
Reimbursable OVS Lunch
• Students must take three of the five food
components
• Menu planner must offer food components in
required daily quantities for grade group
– All components must be available to all students
• Weekly menu must meet the weekly minimums
– If substitutions must be made for vegetables, use the
same subgroup as a substitute
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
15
Reimbursable OVS Lunch
• The menu item(s) selected must be of an adequate
amount to credit as a full component
• Students must take ½ cup of F or V or combination
of F and V
• Students may decline any of the other food
components
– Milk not required
– M/MA and G not required
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
16
K-8: OVS and the ½ cup F/V Rule
• Daily fruit/vegetable requirements
– ½ cup fruits
– ¾ cup vegetables
• The student takes ½ cup vegetable = full V
component.
• The student takes ½ cup fruit = full F component.
• Therefore ½ cup F + ½ cup V = 2 full components
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
17
9-12: OVS and the ½ cup F/V Rule
• Daily fruit/vegetable requirements
– 1 cup fruit
– 1 cup vegetable
• The student takes ½ cup vegetable and/or fruit = full
V or F component.
• The student takes 1 cup of the other (F or V) = a
second full component.
• Therefore ½ cup F or V + 1 cup F or V = 2 full
components

Menu Planning and OVS
• Reflect student preferences
• Provide choices as much as possible
• Indicate which choices make a reimbursable
meal
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
20
General Rules for OVS
• Offering choices ≠ OVS
• Allowing student to only decline milk & salad bar ≠
OVS
• Unit pricing
• Signage, menus and training
• Meal service system exceptions
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
21
Choices ≠ OVS
• If there are choices of entrée but the student
must select one, it is not OVS
• If there are choices of vegetables and fruits,
but the student must take the full meal pattern
quantity of both, it is not OVS
• If the student has choices, but must take
every food component, it is not OVS
OVS: Lunch
http//www.cns.ucdavis.edu
22
Decline Milk or Salad Bar
Only ≠ OVS
• If three components must be taken by the
student and only milk or the salad bar are
optional, it is not OVS
– Allowable only if logistics prevent full OVS
• The student may not be required to take any
particular component except the ½ cup F or V
or combination of both.
OVS: Lunch
