Looks like a tasty piece of sewer bass and a side of bird droppings.

That looks worse than the WORST slop I ever ate during 20 years in the Navy. And I served on aircraft carriers!

Part of moochelle’s ‘Let’s Move’ campaign. Eat this and you will have an explosive bowel movement.

My kid is a senior in high school.
Since we live close to the school he has started coming home for lunch. Usually nobody else is home. He would rather make himself a PB&J or throw an Easy Mac in the microwave than eat the school food.

I don’t personally know any Cajuns. That being said, I can only imagine they wouldn’t approve.

That stuff on the right looks WAY too much like rat poison.

No Cajun cook on Earth would claim that mess.

The fish looks like it was boiled, you have to eat it with a prison spork, & that’s corn, not carrots.

Note that in their reply the school said they were gonna work on food presentation. A sprig of parsley is not gonna improve this food tray.

We had “mystery meat” 40+ years ago in the lunchroom. I remember the huge cans of creamed corn,string beans, & spinach. Seeing those cans was a big turn-off.

Is there anyone here who had tasty, fresh, non-canned food in their lunchroom?

So, is it how the money is being spent that’s the problem? Such as spending less on lunch and more on technology? When I was a child in the early ‘70s, school lunch cost .35 in 3rd Grade and .55 in 5th grade. Meals ranged from spaghetti, meatballs and garlic bread; pizza with sausage or pepperoni; chicken a’la king (my favorite); hamburgers, hotdogs. But every meal was hot and delicious.

But I went to a small school where the elementary, jr high and high school were all on the same campus. I don't remember them serving breakfast either. Oddly enough, kids were expected to eat at home going to school.

The older kids could go to the snack bar or to the elementary cafeteria for lunch, and I almost always ate in the cafeteria. The vegetables may have been canned, but the rolls were made from scratch, the mashed potatoes actually were mashed potatoes and they simmered the sauce for the spaghetti for hours.

Good stuff..and my class had the last lunch, so the ladies were MORE than happy to give 'extras' instead of just throwing it away. :-)

That fish looks good, but I wouldn’t have it on the menu at a school. Most kids don’t like fish.

"The solution to this problem is simple. Ban kids from bringing cameras to school. < / libthink>"

That is probably all too accurate. The parent has embarrassed the school so the student will be suspended for bringing a prohibited device to school and the parent called in and counseled about what would happen if there is any repeat performance by the student or the mother.
