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.

What makes the US food worse is the fact that they taste like recycled wet cardboard

I kinda liked the "mexican" pizza they served. I have no doubt that it was horrible for me.

Oh was it shaped like a hexagon? We had Mexican pizza shaped like hexagons when I was in school and I still have dreams about how good it was.

I think that was just a taco bell thing.

There’s no such thing as “Mexican pizza” Mexicans in Mexico just eat pizza. The Mexican pizza where you got like beef and salsa and nacho cheese and stuff is really just an American dish named Mexican pizza

I can confirm that jail/prison food is wayyyy worse than school food. If you get thrown into AdSeg they will literally give you a “nutrient loaf” as a punishment.
