That's probably it.
Years ago, when I worked summer camps for Jefferson Parish, the kids were fed lunch from the school lunch program. The food was disgusting back then too. Fish sticks with questionable origins; the inside was pink. Mashed potatos that looked more like foam. Burgers that were obviously not made from cow.
I'm sure the school lunches were always nasty. But if the kids are complaining now, the options must be a lot worse. I look at that picture of the three chicken fingers with one apple, and I wonder how these kids aren't starving.

The EBR schools sent out a notice this year. Because more children receive free lunch in the District than pay, the Feds are now subsidizing EVERYBODY's lunch regardless of parental income. So my three kids get to eat free. Except, all three refuse to eat the crap they serve and Mrs. Pimp has to pack their lunch anyway. Success!

I saw a story a few months back that estimated American school cafrterias are throwing away $4,000,000 worth of food everyday since Moochelle started her lunch program.

Honestly, this idea is dumb. Kids were not becoming obese through their school lunches.
Also, not sufficiently feeding a child can result in a rebound-like binge eating when they get home.

Yep, fricking "Look at me Im doing something" I agree, Kids aren't and were never becoming Obese from school lunches. Its all the shite they are fed at home by parents. Take this to welfare. Make to to where you can only buy Rice, Beans, Powdered Milk, flour, water, Bread, Meat, (ground chuck or whole chicken) sugar, and vegetables with their card. She has no interest in fixing anything. Just something to occupy her meaningless time
