School Lunches

[Gary 351C]

The only time I ate the school's lunch was when they had pizza or grilled cheese sandwiches. I usually brown bagged it and it was the same every day: bologna sandwich on WHITE bread with mustard, bag of Fritos and a Scooter Pie (same as a Moon Pie). If a kid brought that to school today their parents would be sent to federal prison on child abuse charges. The funny thing is when I was in grade school (1970's) I remember only 3 or 4 fat kids in the entire school.

That's because y'all went out and played, like normal kids. Not anymore.

That's because we had to take part in P.E. Most overprotecting mothers get doctors notes for their fat kids. We also had recess where we went outside, unless it was raining or a blizzard. Now they stay inside so no kid gets a knee scrape.

Too many parental kidnapping by the non-custodial parent.
Whiney kids, mama's boys and girls...

Have you seen schools lately? They have fences like state prisons. Not sure how a parent can get on the play ground without being noticed.

I work in a school system. I avoid them at all cost unless I'm totally broke and desperate. a 7-11 sandwich is gourmet.

I miss the fiestada. A kinda octagonal pizza looking thing that would eat a hole in the aluminum foil under it, then the box it was in. The soy burgers were edible if you drowned them in condiments.

Its been 25 years since I ate school lunch. The thing that annoyed me was cheese pizza or mac n cheese EVERY Friday, not just during lent or whatever. When I wrestled from November 1 to Feb 15 I hardly ate anyway. No idea what my kid was eating, but she said it was ok.

Now chow hall food... back in the 80s and 90s it was acceptable, but from 2000 to 05, it was pretty damn good. $1.45 for a huge breakfast, and $2.50 for a lunch that stuffed you. The only bad military food I had was in Kuwait, I guess the TCNs didnt know how to cook because they had never seen so much food before.
