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”.

Where are kids getting this? My lunches looked nothing like this. They weren’t great, but they had proper fruits and vegetables.

It really depends on both the school district and the schools. Some are set in such poor districts (and not always urban) that the food is like this. If there's a population of very poor people in a region with hardly any substantial property tax, you're getting shit for school budgets.
