On the off topic of school lunches, this reminds me of those sheet "pizzas" (if you could call them that) that were made like 5x5 foot to be reheated then cut into servings for people. That and the corndogs which had an oddly green toned sausage inside which was supposed to be a regular hotdog... I mean, it wasn't rotten, but what kind of processing does that to meat?
Then came high school and the Little Ceasar's contract ours had. Too expensive really for a student's lunch, but it worked until I had a car and could drive over to the nearest subway every other day for a $5 footlong to last two. Then when I started working, I met the glory of the food trucks. Some of that pomegranate is really, really good, and only costs like $1.75. When I realized I had the option of that or the McDonalds down the road a bit, I regretted all the food I accepted simply because I knew it needed to be "cheap". I do still avoid ground beef at those places though due to their reputation.
