Of course, they’d never do that on Friday, it would be “too Catholic.”
Wait, what?!
Maybe they could mitigate meatless monday’s with, say, *two* ketchup packets. Just for Monday’s sake, then revert back to one.
“Of course, theyd never do that on Friday, it would be too Catholic.”
My thoughts exactly. I was about to post that same thing. We fast all Friday’s of the year. If it was good for 20 centuries it’s ok for us.
Same here, if they were going to do it why not make it Friday so that at least Catholics would benefit from it, why deliberately avoid the obvious and even traditional day?
The whole silly system needs to be rethought.
Since they probably accommodate Friday fish eaters already, this really is a second meatless day.
I forgot that Catholics eat fish meat on Fridays, I guess the Monday is a true no meat day.
In that case it makes some sense.
It could still be kept reasonable with, e.g., cheese
but they oppose abstinence
My god, that actually looks kinda good.
I’m going to lunch now...
So they can serve peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, fruit, and a drink? And maybe a bag of chips?
Bean burritos and salsa with fruit and a drink?
I am not big on this activist agenda that is evident in Sarasota schools. However, a lot of children already have meatless lunches.
The students want healthy meatless trays. That’s the best joke I’ve heard all day. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!
I usually fast from dinner Thursday until dinner Friday.
No food for about 24 hours.
Once again we realize how much more important everything other than education is at our public schools.
How about LGBT-less Mondays? Is that asking too much?
I might be surprised, but I doubt they allow peanut butter anywhere near the school these days. Think riot gear and paddy wagons.
Children at our area school bring peanut butter regularly. I was hesitant to send my children to school with homemade nutter butter cookies. But they assured me that it was ok. So we sent the cookies. There was no problem. That might not always be the case. I do know of a few children who have peanut allergies in the school. We haven’t had any in our children’s classes. Yet.
I took chocolate cupcakes to school for my son’s birthday. I had a child tell me he couldn’t eat any because he is allergic to chocolate. Last year, there was a boy who is allergic to strawberries in my daughter’s class. And yet, he brought blue Bell strawberry ice cream for the banana split party. I asked him about his allergy, and he grinned and said, “I’m not that allergic!”
