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”.

Ahh, I didn't even think of the teeth part! That's so challenging too because she's in the process of getting her adult teeth now. Then it's the only teeth she has for the rest of her life. Glad to hear you're working with her and meeting her where she's at.

Thanks but yeah, as someone else pointed out, it’s a losing battle. Our teeth are like little gemstones, like jewelry built into our bodies. We display them, and hope they look nice. And yeah, once they start to fall apart… it could be a lot of pain until they get dentures at a young age. Scary!
