[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue here is it doesn't matter what you think. School lunches are based on what most kids eat, not what the kids of over achieving DCUM members eat.

I grew up in a poor home, we had fast food every night except when there was no food.

I loved school lunch. Still do. It was the one meal we could count on. I loved the cut up veggies and the chocolate milk and the frosted flakes.

Maybe your kids grew up with pureed organic leeks but most kids don't. And won't eat beets or cabbage in any form. [/quote]

The fact that you think it’s ok to feed kids this stuff is insane. No one said to give kids puréed organic leeks. You realize that it isn’t either/or right?[/quote]

DP.  That PP was right. Kids won't eat cabbage, no matter how long its shelf life is.

The meals from FCPS vary from good to a bit strange (whole wheat cinnamon rolls?). But not bad.  I wonder who is complaining.[/quote]

Speak for yourself. My child loves cabbage. She'll eat a whole jar of rotkraut. [/quote]

I like sauerkraut but most people don't, if they weren't raised on it. Since DH doesn't like it, my kids don't like it either.

How many of your kid's friends would eat it?[/quote]
