That is how I grew up.
I still bring lunch to work, it cost me about 3 bucks a day.
I watch the kids head for their cars to dump 10 bucks a day.
It saves me $1,800 a year.
They still don’t get how I can afford expensive camera gear...

“I thought feeding YOUR kids was part of the parenting gig.”
Yep. Along with being the primary source of responsibility for their learnin’.

1960. Kindergarten, Hayward, CA. Breakfast at my parents' table daily. Lunchbox: sandwich, string potatoes, fruit, cake or cookie, milk in thermos bottle. The apple from my parents got eaten, and NOT thrown away.

what a novel idea? go back to “ancient times” of a few decades ago, of parent’s providing meals for their kids.

2nd thought maybe the schools real concern is the lack of chemicals the kids will miss getting in the school provided food (IE: extra hormones, whatever other crap that seems to make each generation have new flood of health issues)

The only time I ate at school was not dogs during one o’clock session.

“District leaders are asking parents to feed their own kids”

I work swings and bring two meals because it’s too much of a pain to go through airfield security.

I took my lunch to school in the 80’s. My question is, how does ships backed up in ports effect American made products? Alabama school lunch's shouldn't be shipped from over seas. A truck driving Two or Three states at must.

When I was a kid if the parents didn’t have lunch money we’d all (cousins and me) walk to one of our houses and have whatever was left over from dinner the night before for lunch. Cold fried potatoe sandwiches. Cold bean sandwiches. Sometimes there was a chunk of bologna and we’d slice and fry it ourselves for sandwiches. If there was none of that left we’d have mayonnaise or mustard sandwiches. Yeah, we were really mistreated and would have been in the ‘food scarcity’ category. We survived and never realized how poor we were.

because supply chain shortages have badly-affected food deliveries.
...
as employees work around-the-clock to keep pantries stocked.
...
Dothan superintendent Dennis Coe said labor and raw material shortages are to blame affecting the district’s ability to ‘feed our children each day.’
How hard would it be to send one or two employees to Costco or Restaurant Supply Co and buy them out of 50# bags of rice and beans and cans of veggies? Fish sticks and chicken nuggets? Cheap rotisserie chickens? Hell, even if they have to send them several hours to a Texas Costco, seems like it should be pretty easy for any particular school to stock up on food supplies for a week if they're hurting that bad. Sure, it may not be delivered to their front door, but there isn't this apparent "food shortage" everywhere...

When it comes to liberals who want to control poeple, any excuse to gin-up a “crisis” will do.
