Pizza was served in our school cafeteria in the 1970’s. It was awful, even though in NJ. Great pizza was to be had all over. I fondly recall CiCi’s on the Pt. Pleasant Beach boardwalk.
School pizza came in 2 varieties: handmade in pans the size of Rhode Island. Tasted like dinner rolls with ketchup. The other was frozen prefab, seemingly baked some weeks earlier and allowed to congeal into something like cardboard with cheese.
But hey, it was 55 cents!
