“Our school always served good lunches.”
You have me by a few years, old timer, but I remember good lunches at my school as well during the late 60’s early 70’s. It was institutional food, but it was hot and prepared daily in the cafeteria kitchen. In the mornings you could smell the food cooking.
My first job was in the school cafeteria. I helped serve and earned a free lunch for my work. I’m a better man for the experience.

The only school I went to that had bad lunches was back in 1956, AZTEC NM. It seemed it was macaroni cheese thinned down and awful stuff every day. Kids, including me, were constantly throwing it back up. I talked my mom into letting me take my lunch to school for the rest of the year.
Just thirty miles west at Kirtland NM the lunches were great!
