      You’ve probably seen what they feed kids in school.

      There was an idea to make school lunches “healthier” to push weight loss by dumb politicians and the result was worse than the prison food served before. I’ll take the prison food any day over the “healthy” lunches I had when I worked in education, lunch duty so may as well eat something then since you get maybe 15 minutes to eat on lunch break, I would drink a pot of coffee a day lol.

      I really felt bad for the kids, and I can say it probably contributed to behavioral issues. I worked 12 hour+ days some of these kids where there that long for the after school program.

      When I was a kid in a southern US public school back in the 1980’s and 1990’s, I would have killed for a banana. I think peas were an option once.
