Quoting: Anonymous Coward 436473But, that won't make the news I suspect. When I sent my child a sack lunch, he was not allowed enough time to go to his locker to retrieve it and he didn't want to haul it around in his backpack all morning. Some children who did bring their lunches at times were made to sit and eat it on the floor thus increasing incentives to purchase the school lunches. |

Just think what that could cost Military Industrial Complex in lost profits. Scandalous! Well, at least being fat turns out to be a healthier lifestyle than originally suggested. |

I just wanted to add that public school is big business. An elementary school principal confided that the cheapest bidder is the one that is accepted to provide the shipped in and re-warmed lunches (and breakfast) for the schools. These same providers make food for the jails and prisons. The cheapest materials are used for maximum profit. My guess was that the mysterious "meats" appeared to be soy. Dried cardboard cold pizza squares, nothing appeared to be fresh. So sad for our children to be fed this crap. |

The quality was better, but my parents still made me a lunch. I did convince them to give me $10 a week for lunch sometime around high school, but I'd just skimp out on lunch and pocket the money. However, I don't think I'd want to touch any school lunch today. They tasted like cardboard and plastic back then (except for the salads), so I wouldn't want my hypothetical kids eating them now. |

Quoting: mopar28mI have mixed thoughts about this.Our govt gives free mid day meals but most often they are not worth eating but students have no other option. On the other hand,if students start bringing their own lunches,it will create "diversity" which is a hateful thought for TPTB. |
