I went to grade school in the 60s. IIRC, the menu ran like this:

Monday: Soggy Noodley Stuff
Tuesday: Soggy Noodley Stuff
Wednesday: Soggy Noodley Stuff
Thursday: Soggy Noodley Stuff
Friday: Soggy Noodley Stuff

It explains why most of us had items called "Lunch Boxes":

I found it deeply disturbing when “lunch boxes” went from sturdy metal like that one to cheapo colored plastic. It was like a signal that something ominous, something bad was starting to occur in the culture.

Sort of like when there was a new “Tom and Jerry” cartoon show broadcast on Saturday mornings... and instead of violently trying to off each other, my God, they were presented as friendly BUDDIES!

Naturally, I blamed the liberal hippies.

And they were made out of metal!

Why do I have a suspicion that metal lunch boxes probably aren't allowed in school these days?
