[quote=Anonymous]I find it weird. But I’m not American. My kids have a hot lunch that’s different every day, could be pasta or rice with a protein and veggies. Protein meaning meat, fish, tofu, or beans. Veggies meaning cabbage, peppers, broccoli, kale, collards, etc. Snack is fruit. I personally wouldn’t want to eat the same thing every day. But there are definitely kids in their class who have the same lunch every day, like nuggets or PB&J. I am sure your kid is fine and won’t starve. I do find the comments about how it’s fine bc there is protein and calcium in cream cheese just… odd. What about the microbiome? We now know that our guts are our immune system and bacteria help make a lot of neurochemicals. There’s so much more to eating than just counting calories and percent protein. It’s not a dis on your kid’s lunch habits, I more just feel sad that American culture doesn’t have a more holistic view of food.[/quote]
