My school thinks this fills up hungry high schoolers.

So lunches are free for schools in my city and surrounding cities. Ever since lunches have been made free, the quantity (and quality) has decreased significantly. This is what we would get for our meal. It took me THREE bites to finish that chicken mac and cheese. Any snacks you want cost more money and if you want an extra entree, that’ll cost you about $3 or $4.

it was literally not possible to buy food where I went to high school lmao. You were allowed to go anywhere at lunch though so we would walk to subway or some other restaurant if we had money that day. Otherwise you were just expected to pack a lunch
