Maybe you misread the question.  It was:  "What does [b]your [/b]elementary schooler eat on an avg day?"  not "Make judgmental comments about what [b]my[/b] elementary schooler eats on an avg day."

Meh? If the child has a weight problem, there's no getting away from the fact that these lunches ARE unhealthy. If OP didn't want people commenting on that, she should have offered different context. And now the menu, so you can see we make plenty of unhealthy choices as well, which you are free to criticize- 
Skinny boy, very healthy, averagely active. 
Breakfast - 1 egg, sometimes bacon/ham/turkey bacon/sausage, a handful of raspberries or a few apple slices, slice of dark rye. Water or juice, sometimes hot tea with a bit of honey.
School snack - something like goldfish, pretzels, crackers with cheese, yogurt, energy bar, popcorn, fruit, jerky.
School lunch - buys about once a week. Other days mostly warm lunch in thermos - soup, pasta with ham, rice with meatballs etc. Cucumber slices or a piece of fruit, water.
After-school snack - slice of bread with cheese or salami, apple slices.
Dinner - homecooked soup or stew, potatoes with a shop-bought roast chicken, cheese ravioli, chinese or japanese takeout. Milk or water. Ice cream mostly every day.
