POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- The eternal struggle between parents and kids is trying to get kids to eat a healthy meal. The opposite has happened in Point Pleasant.

Kids can't get enough of the nationally recognized salad bar at the grade school there.

“I like the cucumbers, I like the cheese, and I like the apples,” fourth grader Leah Keller said.

“I guess I just wanted to eat a salad,” fourth grader Seth Morgan said.

This isn't an ordinary salad bar at the Point Pleasant Intermediate School. According to the USDA after their last visit, it's the best.

It’s amazing is how fast these kids gobble the greens down. The busy lunch ladies have to stock the two salad bars constantly.

“There are a lot of things offered on the salad bar that when I was their age I just wasn't offered these things,” fourth grade teacher Crystal Love said.

They’re eating good, eating lots and eating healthy, which are components that make the PPIS salad bar the best around.

The principal at Point Pleasant, Paul Ashby, says the salad bar is endless as long as the students pay for the lunch.

He says they take full advantage of that and they rarely have left-overs.
