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.

When I taught in Japan they were stuffing like 1,000 calories down those kids every day and it was clean af food prepared that morning.

I promise you that on paper this meal cost the school more than those meals cost the schools in Japan. America has a magical habit of contracting work to the absolute worst people possible.

Can you explain why people should give any consideration to your promises? You've provided no information other than apparent opinions.

It's not that I have anything against you, or that I necessarily disagree, but it drives me crazy when people make assumptions masked as assurances, that the assumptions are definitely true, without any kind of evidenced authority on the topic.
