You can send your kids to a private school too if you wish. Or you can send your children to school with a meatball sub (unless you go to a school where the administration of that school has chosen to ban lunches from home, which has absolutely nothing to do with either Obama, their children, nor even the new school guidelines).
The limit is not 750, it is 850 for high school students, teenagers, which they found is pretty close to the average amount of calories that they were being served prior to the guidelines changing. Plus,
No one "outlawed" meatball subs or ice cream for school children. In fact, my child last year had several days where they had junk food during class. Plus, some schools even have ice cream as an "a la carte" item, as it has always been. Students have always had to pay extra (at least every school I've ever known) for things like ice cream. I can prove this.

Oh and some get meatball subs for lunch as well.

Maybe you should actually look at what is allowed rather than simply reacting to some things being said on the internet. Meatball subs nor ice cream are banned from schools. Ice cream in public schools has almost never been available as included in the regular meal price, and has pretty much always been for most schools an a la carte option, as it still is in many schools.
So if she thinks that kids need to eat healthier how about she tends to her own kids first. yes lunch rooms cannot serve those things as they violate the amount of protien and other restrictions that she thinks other kids should be on.
no that is not how elitism works.
she would never feed her kids the slop that she is making other kids eat.
ice cream falls outside the to much calories for the meals.
no 750-850 calories is not enough for a person burning over 1000.
not to mention there are plenty of studies that say hungry students don't learn was well or concentrate as good.
