"School lunch in the United States" - In which Redditors at a balanced meal with reasonable portions

When I was in school from 2001-2013, my lunches never looked anything like that. I actually really enjoyed the food we were served.

Thanks, Obama. (It must be because of Obama and not because he went to a different school.)

Lookin a lot like a jail tray (minus the fruit cups)

How dare they serve food on a tray!

What's mildly interesting about this?

Shh /u/EasyAsPizzaPie it's a circlejerk thread, those are exempt from being on topic.

They used to be better. Like actual food. If I had a kid and their lunches were this, I'd start packing their lunches myself.

Actual food doesn't include meat, vegetables, fruit or potatoes apparently.

The same corporations that supply the prison system with food appear to also supply the public school system.

If this is what prison food looks like, jailcels need to shut up about food forever.
