According to surveys and study, many of the meals getting a failing grade in nutrition mainly sodium which is almost the same as fast food resturant meals like McDondalds. Here story and feel to comment.

 

FYI. As most of you are aware, high salty foods could lead to health problems such as high blood pressure and diabetes.

School lunch already sucks. I hope they don't make it "healthier" (ie inedible).

School lunch already sucks.

Ain't that the truth?

 

This bullcrap called "food" is why I almost NEVER eat food at my college and prefer to make my own. Depending on the ingredients, homemade food is WAY better than the garbage offered at any school or fast food restaurant.

School lunch has sucked always! And still fatty food, while bloobag wants to fight obesity??

 

Breakfast is ok compared to Lunch!

Yuck. Roaches in food for lunch food? :eek:

 

Off topic for moment. About 5-6 years i saw a roach on floor of a former Roy Rogers at the location now closed on Park Place near Bway(now a subway resturant) near wtc site.

School food is meant to suck. Always has, always will, why do you think it's "free"?

[buswizard]

I pay for all food here at college.

But I don't always eat it. Normally I will gladly eat my own food. I can make/cook oatmeal, green beans, fries, tater tots, noodles, certain soups, etc. I am a vegetarian. And I don't like roaches in my food. Even if they were cuisine prepared by cooking on the 3rd rail. BTW I saw a dead mouse inside a can of what was supposed to be pineapple!!!

The reason why school food sucks is because the administration wants to say, "You hate school? Well I will make you hate it more and more and you can't do anything about it! MMUAAHAHAAHAAA!!!!" That is cruel and unusual punishment. ALL the schools I went to, however, charged money for everything. So "free food" is somrething I will never experience unless I am at certain churches.

Public schools need a leisurely amount of and a healthy supply of so that the meals are enjoyable and good.

I don't know about you guys, but I was afraid of any "food" that came out of the school cafeteria.

[lilbluefoxie]

My school had the cafeteria thing outsourced to another company (Aramark). Having seen both eras of cafeteria (when the district staffed it and when Aramark staffed it), i'd have to say there was zero improvement.

It's only free if you qualify, otherwise you have to pay.

As a tax payer, it's not a free lunch since I might have payed for it. Either way, the slop they serve is gross.

Oh noes. Fatty foods. Think of the children...

 

When I attended Brooklyn Tech from 1999 to 2003 I hated the school lunch. The pizza didn't even taste like pizza. The hamburgers tasted like fake meat. The good news is that they used to sell pretzels. They also had a vending machine with Snapple (I'm sure Bloomturd got rid of both).

KFC (Killing Fresh Chickens)

 

At least it's fresh.

[Joe]

At least it's fresh.

 

That's what I was thinking. I wouldn't want to be eating nonfresh dead chickens.

I'll stick with Taco Bell, but the KFC is fitting after a day at the wire wheel.
