I used to think my lunches were bad back in the day. But compared to this, they were pretty generous.     I don't see how they expect children to have enough energy throughout the day with such small amounts of food. After eating such a meager meal, I don't think I'd feel good to go for another 4 hours of school.     Unless their goal is to make people hate it soo much they won't eat it and bring their own lunch instead.....but a lot of poorer people rely on school lunches to help fill almost 30% of their kids nutritional needs on the weekdays.     Another issue with bringing your own lunch, is freshness. Keep a salad or sandwich packed up in a backpack all morning, and come around lunch time, it's not going to be soo great tasting. In fact, it could be dangerous to eat by then.    How the heck does michelle obama even have a say in these things? She wasn't elected president of school lunch. Pretty much every project michelle obama does is something obama can't give her simple permission for even if he wanted.     It's clear what this really is though: The education system is broke, and they're trying to hide it behind 'eat right' campaigns. I'm sure they're all patting each other on the backs about how much money they saved by reducing lunches.     With as little food as there is.....do we even need lunch ladies anymore? Why should we support a group of people on even minimum wage whose job is to hand out scraps of food? might as well replace them with mechanical soylent green dispensers.
