[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]School lunch is awful. If people are going to spend taxpayers money on feeding kids, make sure it's nutritious and [b]edible[/b].[/quote]

They are nutritious now and largely go untouched by many students.  At our school, those who receive a free lunch are required to take one.  If they skip the line that day, an attendant brings a tray to them.  Even if they don't want it, that's the rule.  And then it gets thrown away untouched.  These are kids who get bags of food to carry them over the weekend (mostly junk food, like, boxed mac & cheese and Chef Boyardee) and are known to be food insecure.  Hungry kids would rather go hungry than eat the garbage given to them... that's sad. [/quote]

Lol. I checked out my local school's lunch menu which markets 'nutritious food' but it's still crap like pizza and corn dog. Just because it's whole grain doesn't make it nutritious. This country has a very warped idea of nutrition.[/quote]

Np- they won’t eat “nutritious” lunches. How are you not getting that?[/quote]
