If the options are economically feasible, they should offer them.

As someone else pointed out, if the schools could actually turn a profit selling caviar (though this seems highly unlikely) they should.

Again, all my arguments are based on the assumption that the veggie meals are economically feasible. If they are not, then they shouldn’t be offered.

You seem to have a totally irrational aversion to offering them, even if they are economically feasible.

Even in a government run enterprise, the more like a free market you make it, the better it will be.

“Even in a government run enterprise, the more like a free market you make it, the better it will be.”

Can you tell me where else in the “free market” I can get the meal of my choice either free or below cost? Well? Just soup kitchens, and they operate at a loss and survive on donations.

You seem to be under the impression that school cafeterias are money making enterprises and base their offerings on what makes them money. Are you really this naive? How exactly does one make money selling reduced price or free meals? How many times do you need to have it explained to you?

If we just served bread and water to children, it wouldn’t be ECONOMICALLY FEASIBLE because they’re not trying to turn a profit.
