Chicken nuggets everyday. Some days they good, some days they were awful. And 2 chocolate milks
[QUOTE=TheTalon;47277207]That's a lunch? That's a snack. When I was in high school we had these rectangular slices of pizza every. single. day. Along with other stuff, but I ate the pizza because they were actually good. Not only that, I'd get two, lay one face down on the other, and make a god damn amazing sandwich out of it[/QUOTE] My school has pizza but instead of them being rectangular they're circular and they actually cook them. Shit's good mate.
Who the fuck decided that bags of liquid was a good product? That's fucking stupid.
[QUOTE=draugur;47278237]Who the fuck decided that bags of liquid was a good product? That's fucking stupid.[/QUOTE] Some countries have bagged milk in the super market. The question is who thought bagged liquids was a great idea to give kids....
I remember seeing this on imgur. School lunch from sweden. [t]http://i.imgur.com/TACK1en.jpg[/t]
[QUOTE=draugur;47278237]Who the fuck decided that bags of liquid was a good product? That's fucking stupid.[/QUOTE] The people who sell/ship milk and realized "Hey, we can fit more containers in the same space if we go from cartons to bags!"

There's nothing wrong with bags of milk. As long as you don't decide to drink from them directly.

the food at my highschool was [I]alright[/I], but the prices and the queueing, ugh there's a reason the guy who owns the chip shop on the way home knew our names and had our orders ready every day before we got there
Holy shit all of those american things look like they came out of the trash
why does all of it look like garbage why do american schools serve shit like this
[QUOTE=ironman17;47277817]Thank god we have Jamie Oliver over here, right? Except for ditching the turkey twizzlers, but you've heard me yammer on about 'em enough to know how I feel.[/QUOTE] Jamie Oliver came to my city but I don't think it helped much tbh!
What the dicks is your lunch deals boys I gotta pay minimum $5.50 to get a slice and a can.
In the Netherlands we pretty much had no school lunch. We had a tiny little cafeteria who sold some sandwiches, but most people just brought their own lunch.
In college we got breakfast, lunch and dinner for free
I remember my schools lunch being horrible enough that i climbed a 3 meter fence and went down the road to the chippy every day.
Sounds like its more of the schools' problem than Michelle Obama's. It's possible to have a healthy AND filling lunch without resorting to serving hardttack and beetles or whatever the hell you guys have been posting pictures of.
Everyone here is acting like bringing homemade lunches to school is impossible
[QUOTE=opaali;47278451]In college we got breakfast, lunch and dinner for free[/QUOTE] I was going to be surprised at this, but considering the Nordic lands and their qualities, it makes sense. Also, doesn't Finland have access to large reserves of oil, or am I thinking of Sweden or Norway? I recall reading somewhere that one of the Scandinavian countries had access to substantial oil reserves and used them to fund free college education or something.
[QUOTE=.Lain;47278359]why does all of it look like garbage why do american schools serve shit like this[/QUOTE] Imagine a 19th century factory assembly line in a depressing black and white film with sad violin music playing. Now take that exact concept and apply it to an education system. That is why.
[QUOTE=meppers;47278543]Everyone here is acting like bringing homemade lunches to school is impossible[/QUOTE] Some schools don't allow it due to "other kids' allergies".
What pisses me off is the fact that prison inmates get a lot more food (and sometimes better taating, too) than lots of high schoolers (including myself).
[QUOTE=meppers;47278543]Everyone here is acting like bringing homemade lunches to school is impossible[/QUOTE] It is when you couldn't even afford to eat two meals at home sometimes. I don't think you understand how poor some of us have truly been. I'm not fucking joking when I say that there were times that dog food was a meal. You ever eaten dry dog food in a bowl with some water like a cereal? No? Okay. That's what happens when you're poor as fucking dirt and yet apparently make too much for food stamps. Was I part of a minority group? Yeah. But that's not a fucking good excuse at all. OH AND YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT I'M SALTY ABOUT IT. We were poor mostly because our glorious American healthcare system fucked my family with more medical debt than most people can reasonably pay ever, plus we ended up being the victim of predatory housing loans as a result of the health care system literally destroying my parent's credit and other great shit. Without those predatory loans I'd be able to add lived under a bridge like a homeless man to my list of childhood experiences.
I've never understood school lunches, honestly. It's not hard or expensive to make healthy, good, appealing food, and yet they always fall back on the same bland garbage. It just doesn't make any sort of sense. Yeah, I get the "some kids are picky" thing, but when the alternative is that school lunches rarely have any nutritional value outside of piles of fat, you would think someone would try to change it. I mean, hell, I went to a tiny private high school, and our lunch lady was able to put together healthy, delicious lunches for $3 a person, sold 'em for $4. It's my understanding that that's the average cost of a school lunch to produce, so you have to wonder why the public system doesn't do similarly.
[QUOTE=proboardslol;47277964]this is the best looking american lunch I've seen. usually it's more like [img]http://www.yayan123.com/uploads/allimg/121202/011I33630-14.jpg[/img] or [img]https://sociorocketnewsen.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/american-school-lunches9.jpg?w=580&h=435[/img][/QUOTE] Is that normal in the US? Swedish prison food looks way better than that.
Wait, so American children really have to pay for their school lunch every day? Wouldn't it be better to ditch the whole paying daily for packaged food and just get proper food courts where different food is served every day to all students for free like in most civilized countries...
[QUOTE=Swebonny;47278773]Is that normal in the US? Swedish prison food looks way better than that.[/QUOTE] Never seen bread like that before, but that is the exact same "spaghetti" they served at my school.

Why should we do that when we can use that money to line the pockets of our politicians, corporations, and to blow up brown people? Who the fuck do you think we are?
