school lunch food
I just read an article on Yahoo! that included a link to this blog: http://fedupwithschoollunch.blogspot.com. It made me very ill, and very thankful that my mom always packed my lunches (clear through high school, and even when I went to work in the summers during college).
Re: school lunch food
Since we qualified for free lunch...I had school lunch every day.
These choices are very interesting. In high school I only remember pizza with fries, nachos (chips and nacho cheese) with fries and cheeseburgers with fries. Free lunch kids couldn't get a salad, as I recall. You had to pay for those. If you forgot your free lunch card, you'd get pb&j on crackers.
Sometimes, they barbequed and it was awesome. Burgers again, but so delicious.
In middle school, they were more creative...ex: the pork pizza dog (hot dog wrapped in pizza).
OMFG. Aria. I almost barfed reading the pork pizza dog. Soooo gross.
Agreed. And, I agree with Twink--I remember that it was more expensive to get the healthier options. So sad. I think there was only a handful of times I bought lunch at school. I was a brown bag kid and am glad that I was. I plan on making our kid(s) their lunches as well.
Yup, this is a big problem that I have with the health and food sector. We complain up and down about childhood obesity, adult obesity, etc. HOWEVER, go take a look in the grocery store and tell me what kind of food is the most affordable and accessible to ALL populations?!? That's right, the highly-processed, least nutritious food. It baffles me why there isn't more of a push to rework everything and lower costs of healthy and fresh foods AND make them readily available to all (I realize that's a huge undertaking and isn't so cut and dry, but it's a cause I think really needs to be advocated).
I totally agree! But I'd have no idea where to start.
