    There's a lesson here that no one is talking about. That is what meals look like when your health isn't being sold to the highest bidder, and you aren't being poisoned on the daily. Half the crap put in our food in the US is banned and labeled as poison in Europe.

    As a german, I can say I have never seen this as lunch. Within the schools I've been to people usually either brought their own bread with things on it or if they got something at school it was usually like some meat, with some kind of vegetables and carbs (rice/pasta/potatoes) and then they would get to choose desert either something sweet or fruit. Depending on the school a small side salat or bowl of cold veggies was also included.
  • @olafriedel2182
    As a german i have to say, that they chosed the worst school lunch possible. Most schools i know have similar meals like italy or spain.
  • Italian high school students usually go home for lunch. Lunches are usually served in kindergardens, primary schools and sometimes in middle school. The food is not super delicious (you can't make great tasting food for that many people), but it sure is healthy. As the girl said there are pretty strict guidelines.
  • @missc2824
    as a brit, I never had a school lunch like that. My school offered panini's, Jacket potatoes, pasta pots and tuna melts every day and then had a rotation of curry, lasagne or other pasta dishes, roast dinners, etc. every friday was fish and chips
  • @aerinn6136
    My face went 😱 when they ate all the slices of bread smashed together! We eat them separately in Norway. 😂
  • @cacklebarnacle15
    Crying in German, because you did us, Italy and Norway dirty with those weird bread and bun choices. And those 'prezels' looked sus as hell.
  • @Owen004
    That one girl was right. Schools get massive football stadiums but can’t have good fruit at lunch
  • @grebenrA
    Leverpostei, brunost, ham and cheese all at once?! Madness. I'd plop the ham and cheese together, maybe. But the two others needs to be eaten on their own. You savages. 😂
  • @chicken
    Idea for next time do Japanese bento boxes.
  • @jenzhere99
    In the US, school lunches consisted of a rectangle piece of pepperoni pizza, fries, some kind of canned fruit and a half pint of milk. If we let go of the emphasis on competitive sports we might be able to feed our kids better healthier meals
  • In Italy pasta isn't usually put together with the other "courses".
  • @IncitingScenes
    Just for the record: no Norwegian has ever eaten all of those four sandwiches squeezed together 😂 They're meant to be eaten one by one, not all together 😅🤢
  • @polen23455
    As a norwegian seeing them squishing the bread toghether actually hurts
  • As a Norwegian, I audibly gasped when seeing them eating all the sandwiches in one. That’s crazy.
  • @danipianoarts
    That is NOT a typical German school lunch!! 😂 Cantines would serve nice dishes, at least from my experience.
  • @camkiller2004
    I’m British and I have never had a jacket potato, fish fingers, Beene and biscuits for lunch in any school I attended. When I had school lunch I went for a burger or a pizza with a drink(not tea) and a dessert(usually a chocolate brownie or cake).
  • @KamillaFjeld
    I’m Norwegian… and it physically hurt to see them eat those 4 open faced sandwiches together…..
  • @tatitz1677
    No German would call this a pretzel... Also the bun of the Bratwurst would never be served with a Bratwurst. To me that looks like a hotdog bun.
  • @Charoke
    Norwegian here, the stacked bread is real, but we dont eat everyone at once. Its different toppings to have more variations. You eat one slice of bread with topping at the time. Not everything at once🤢
