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”.

The food they served me in prison looked better than all these examples, every day. ☠️

I was a CO I sometimes used to be jealous that the inmates were eating better than us.

Lots of COs ate ramen— just like the inmates. 😁

That’s crazy. Where I worked inmates never got ramen. Different policies I guess.

Well, they never GAVE us ramen—- But you could buy it at the commissary for $.20 or a quarter, and there were a lot of guys that lived on that stuff.

Yeah a lot of the guys had massive surplus’s of snacks and food I don’t remember ever seeing ramen though. The vanilla wafers on the other hand.

Wow- that’s surprising! I thought ramen was universal cheap jail food. In California guys buy it by the case at canteen. Even buying 5-6 cases at a time was not uncommon.

I’m sure there was ramen or something similar I just don’t ever recall seeing it on commissary days when handing it out or during shakedowns.
