Various school lunches from around the world. School lunch doesn't really represent the best a country has to offer, but we still love it, because we grew up on it.
USA School Lunch - Nachos and French Fries
Country: USA
Contents: Nachos, French fries, ketchup, chocolate milk, peaches.
Source: ?
Notes: Seriously? Nachos and French fries? This is why kids are fat.
not only is it the death of healthy eating, it's the death of the taste buds! fried, salty, ketchup, sugared syrupy fruit product and chocolate milk. bleck!
This is just disgusting - as are many of the USA lunches I'm looking at here. Why? There's so much good food out there to be had. How in the world is this acceptable to anyone?
I just come across your blog and this lunch shames the US. What are we doing to our kids! Keep up the good work. let the masses know why our kids are fat! thedomesticgroove@gmail.com
Ugh! This looks a lot like the school lunches I got in jr. high and high school (in the U.S. midwest). Apparently, cheese sauce is a protein and fries are a vegetable? :(
Now that school lunches have new requirements (more veggies, especially red and orange ones, more legumes, fruit, and whole grains, and lower fat milk) children are not trying the veggies or fruit. They are throwing them away. So, now kids are hungry in the afternoon. Good eating habits start at home!
Nachos should not be the main course...as they were often served in my school. Doesn't mean I didn't love them though!
ReplyDeleteThere is no denying they are delicious, but I don't think they should count as a meal.

ReplyDeleteDoes that kid really need that much ketchup for those fries? It looks like five packets.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely should not be a main course. Tacos are a snack, although that orange coloured velveeta cheese sort of turns my stomach
ReplyDeletethat much ketchup is probably the only way to get those fries down
