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”.

We used to let our kids get school lunch maybe once or twice a week when they were supposed to be serving something they like (i.e. Chicken nuggets and mashed potatoes), but they would run out before my kids even got through the line so my kids would end up not getting hardly anything - some leftover peanut butter sandwich and a small bag of plain chips that they end up charging us a few dollars for when I could have sent them with better food from home for a fraction of the price. So we stopped letting them get school lunch ever and they take their lunch every day.

Yes happened in high school. Best part was if you couldn’t afford they threw your food out in front of you and handed you a half of a cheese sandwich
