Reminds me of when I was a little kid and they tried to force me to eat the ginger-ale Jello at lunch. Maybe it had pears in it, I don’t recall. I do remember resisting and had to get my folks involved. Not sure if I puked on anyone’s shoes, but I recall gagging a lot. That was a private school so we at least had recourse.

I hate freaking Jello to this day. It is useful for ballistic testing if mixed strong enough ...

I went all 12 years to Catholic schools in Detroit. In neither school was there a cafeteria. If a student didn't live close enough to go home for lunch, the student either brown-bagged it, or went to a nearby bakery and had pastries and chocolate milk for lunch. Somehow or another, we all survived to this day, late 60s or 70 years old.

I am very sorry for your loss, USMCPOP.
