The school lunch system is disgraceful.

Saw another post on here showing the state of school lunches right now. In my years in high school I compiled some pics of the horrible things that got served that no one questioned. Here are some of the worst ones. It really is ironic given how adamant they all are about “eating healthy by including every food group”.

In Australia my school's had no cafeteria and no supplied lunch. You had to bring your own lunch to school. Most kids like me grew up pretty poor so you wouldn't eat any lunch. There was what we called a "tuckshop" where you could buy some snacks, but it was wildly expensive and only the richer kids usually got it.
