to all the parents, this is why kids come home so hungry.

Get Gordon Ramsay on this.

"alright kids, make sure to eat healthy" "oh cool! so your gonna give us an actually good lunch, right?" "uh..." "you, are going to give us a good lunch, right?"

The content and volume of food that kids get in a public school luncheon nowadays is absolutely shameful. I was so fortunate in the 60's-70's when I was in grade school in a Catholic school, our cafeteria cooks (older Slovak and Polish women) made everything from scratch...pizza, soups, bread, everything. They were awesome cooks, it was like eating a home cooked meal. Even my public high school had pretty good food then. What is going on now in public schools is disgusting.

Prisons have better food than children, smh it was all defunded
-
This is actually sad cause some kids who can’t afford food come to school just to get the food
-
I remember school lunches back in the day was a full meal and the "lunch ladies" made sure we had enough by even bringing home cooked food to the school. Which of course today would get them fired.

Signs of the times that society in many places just do not genuinely care about kids. 😔😔😔😔🙄
-

Heads up it's 2022 and this is still a thing. My nephew is an 8th grader in Kansas and when I found out what they serve these children... my heart broke. My mom had been a para in my school districe and she worked as a janitor in the summer at my school, so my brothers and I were well fed at school 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️ My nephew doesn't have that same inside access. I didn't even realize my brothers and I were getting special treatment. My nephew now takes his lunch to school and I send him snacks also. These children wake at the butt crack of dawn and then they have standardized testing, peer pressure, school work, activities and still more school work... and we have the nerve to want them to do this all on an empty stomach with high energy and getting top grades?! That's ridiculous.

As from someone living in Eastern Europe, 80% of public schools don’t even serve kids meals, children get like a small carton of milk and some bread/biscuits

“Eat healthy”- says school also school: here’s some cardboard pizza
-
The school literally did the BARE minimum to reach the FDA requirements lmfao

We had something we affectionately called "cardboard pizza" in elementary back in the 90s. If you want your kids to have a guaranteed healthy lunch, pack them one. Also, most kids aren't even going to eat the fruit or vegetable offered them. It's a sad truth. No one will police them and make sure it isn't wasted.

Thank you to the parent that brought this to everyone's attention maybe now our children will be fed right
-
I heard they serve better food in jail.

This isnt like abnormal for the US, this is why ppl should pack lunch (Edit: I am aware that school lunch could be the only real meal a child is getting if their family cannot afford to eat, but if you can afford to pack lunch it is often healthier and cheaper)

I remember when I didn't have any lunch money, my school gave me a cheese sandwich. Genuinely, a couple of hamburger buns with a slice of Kraft cheese. It was enough to make you more hungry than you did without food. Quite a tease of a "Meal"... Thankfully, I usually could afford a regular school lunch which would usually have milk, fruit, veggies and a main course. Truth of the matter was that lots of kids couldn't afford regular school lunch, and they were only getting a cheese sandwich on a daily basis... I was disgusted by my schools reaction to children going hungry. At least add a couple of slices of sandwich meat.

The worst part about this is the mother is unaware what her son is eating every day at school. 😢
