Rumors: Many California school districts provide 2~3 meals a day and after school post snacks to so called students, year round not just during school.
Breakfast,Lunch, Snacks and maybe dinner:
President Harry S. Truman signed the National School Lunch Act on June 4, 1946. Though school foodservice began long before 1946, the Act authorized the National School Lunch Program (NSLP).
The School Breakfast Program is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools and residential child care institutions. It began as a pilot project in 1966, and was made permanent in 1975.Mar 31, 2019.

TANSTAAFL!

The Moon is a Harsh Mistress.
There were times I took mayo only sandwiches to school for lunch. If I wanted to pay, I had to use my lawn mowing and paper route money for lunch.
Dont forget the fresh baked dinner rolls with real butter.
Most of the “free lunches” wind up in the cafeteria garbage cans, being nearly 100% frozen microwaveable portions of garbage nearly devoid of nutrients—not real food cooked right there. The vending machines for candy and other non-nutritional snacks do a booming business in schools. Somehow the students always have money for that.
Best let it end, lest it be just another contributor to overall inflation.
Good. End it. While your at it, end welfare, social security, medicare and medicaid.
I wasn’t suggesting ending it. Just keep Biden from withholding funds by singling out schools that refuse to promote transgenders.
A novel idea that will be rejected by millions. 40 years ago I lived in West Seattle, what was then a blue collar neighborhood.
I had a neighbor who was a professional baker who worked for the largest bread producer in the area at the time. He had a son two years older than my daughter. As my daughter got closer to school age, the more my conversations with the neighbor revolved around public schools.
What I learned from him and several others in the neighborhood, caused me to sell my home and move westward across the Puget Sound to a rural county with residents that possessed much more common sense. They wanted Chinese Style child rearing!
The West Seattle folks almost completely, thought public schools should be responsible for feeding and basically everything that the parents should be doing themselves and more during the time the schools had the children. What really made me lose my temper and friendship with the one neighbor with the boy child, was the fact that he and his wife thought the schools should be the ones who teach the kids the “Birds and the Bees” issue in the schools.
He got what he wanted and more. I expect to see article after article deriding the cancellation of the the “Benefit”, highlighting depressed, distressed, delirious, dependent dregs on society describing how terrible this diabolical denial is disastrous to their despicable lives.
That kind of lunacy finally manifested itself in 2007 when Hitlery put that stupid phrase, “it takes a village to raise a village idiot” or something like that in her ghost written book and presidential campaign. I’m with you, enough already!!!
