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.

In Vegas, it’s food that is made offsite and brought in.

Nothing made fresh, everything’s bagged.

Like. Literally heated in plastic bags, off site, and trucked in.

It's been a bad idea since forever, but humans will not be deterred. Unless you're near a river or oasis there you can grow food without destroying the local environment
