Wow, Jennifer, I know what you mean! I often subbed for a teacher that had lunch duty. I was posted in the line to make sure kids didn't kill each other while getting their food.
I was shocked at what they ate! Tatertots, pizza, and chocolate milk!
And that was a good lunch...you'd never believe some of the things the kids brought from home... Oy!
There was a great Simpson's episode on recently where the school installed vending machines with subliminal messages. Bart became incredibly fat and ended up going to fat camp. In the end, he busted up the vending machines and went back to normal eating. I was cheering, thinking of all the kids I know who love that show and might be influenced by it.
Mrs. Jim, those sites are so encouraging!
