My school used to have a fruit requirement. You could not have your meal unless you had at least 1 fruit (an orange, apple, or banana). They later changed it that you didn’t need anything except the food you wanted (but they would charge you more without telling you). There was a rumor that went around that the janitor would dig through the trash and pull out any fruit that looked like it could be served again. Almost everyone just assumed it was fake, but still didn’t eat the fruit because it was not very fresh. I did an experiment with an apple and really didn’t think anything of it. I made a mark on that apple that looked like it could’ve just been natural, but it was just different enough that I could tell the difference. I was actually disgusted when I found that same apple 2 days later. I never ate anything from that school ever again

I considered myself lucky in high school when I learned that the sweet lunch ladies would work with the culinary class to chop fresh vegetables and grill chicken for our boxed salads. These big homemade salads would count as an entree because of the chicken, hard boiled egg, and breadstick that came with it, but would also have all kinds of good stuff in a couple varieties. I would always pick them up and thank the lunch lady that told me about it, because she definitely felt more like a lunch mom to the students.

I actually did a survey about school lunches at my school. Most people said the lunches were okay, a few kids hate the lunches, and the kids who think that the soggy fries and the dry spaghetti is to die for.

My school give us these burito bowl with rice bean chicken or beef and you have the option to add lettuce bits and cheeder cheses and I always thought it was the best

Our school has Italian dunkers which are basically cheese with some bread rolled around it. They’re really good. They also have cheesy French bread which is some bread that looks to be from a more rounded prince of bread cut into quarters horizontally and vertically if that makes sense. With butter and cheese on top. Not to mention quite a few people seem to like crispitos which are basically ground beef with some sort of seasoning to them wrapped in what I can only assume is a hard tortilla? Besides those food quality had been declining except for the fact they’re finally getting better tortillas which my friends and I are quite pleased with.

As an European, American school lunches scare me. In my country school cafeteria was more like a non official restaurant. You could pick from a meniu what you wanted to eat, from soup to fish to meat and other meats and a full meal+drink was usually around 3-4 euros and that's not talking about the pastries and pizzas( yes, a whole pizza, but it was only one kind) for around 2-3 euros. And you knew what was in the meat, so you were certain that your burger wouldn't come alive once it was on your plate EDIT: I'm from Lithuania and I went to a public school. In my schools there were also programs for parents with very little income where the kids would eat completely for free as well as there was a program where you could pay for the school to provide a meal for your kid and ensure they were eating if you weren't sure if your kid could be responsible with money and would actually eat instead of saving it to buy toys

It's similar here in Singapore too, whereby the school canteen (which is what we call it) is essentially a non-official food court, which has several stalls operated by different vendors, which mainly served meals and snacks that regular people would buy and eat normally outside of school anyway, like noodle soup, rice with sides that you pick and choose, a pasta dish, etc.

(Also in other schools there straight up weren't any school lunches you could buy) The best food my school served was pasta with cheese and sugar (sound bad ik but trust me with the right type of cheese its extremely good) and (i don't have a direct translation but here it goes) home made chocolate which is basically a type of chocolate that has more sugar and is usually home made and cut into thick chunks.

You should be scared, at the private elementary/middle school I attended, there was "Mac'n'cheese", but the cheese was so gross that everyone called it "Mac'n'glue". I'd be surprised if they didn't still serve it, 10-12 years later

The best thing my school ever served was the “Holiday meal!” This included stuffing that strangely tasted like Rice-a-Roni, mashed potatoes, green beans, and two slices of turkey and the whole thing was covered with turkey gravy! Back when the the Pandemic was bad and they send lunches and breakfast, and when they were delivering the “Holiday meal” I would order extra because it was that good 😋

Was this for thanksgiving or every holiday?

My high school lunch was terrible! Any chicken was VERY pink inside, all the toppings of pizza (including the cheese) you could pull off in one piece, the milk was spoiled a lot. The most semi acceptable thing was the salad. Especially with goldfish and ranch on it. I also found it weird that all the vegetables we grew in agriculture class and gave to the cafeteria were never used?

My elementary lunch program was a little different. I went to a small elementary school from ‘87-‘93 in a town of 130 people. Roughly 30 students k-6. Or fruits and veggies were canned but our main dish was always homemade. Our school cook would make things like tater tot casserole, elbow macaroni with velvetta cheese but the best was the pizza. She’d roll out pizza crust, lather it with sauce and thick layer of ground beef and a pile of cheese. It was so good. When I moved onto Jr High (consolidated school dist) I was in for a bit of shock when I had a more conventional school lunch. The JH/HS was in a town of 500 with approximately 250-300 kids k-12 in the school . The best thing they made from scratch was the pig in a blanket. They called them wiener winks. It was a slice of buttered bread wrapped around a hot dog with a chunk of cheddar stuck in it and a toothpick holding it all together. Heated in the oven for some toasty, cheesy goodness. Their homemade dinner rolls and cinnamon toast was also a daily salad bar option.

I'm a lunch lady (no my names not Brenda!) and I seriously had so much fun reading the comments below on everyone's favorite school lunch foods! Best part about being a lunch lady is serving those cute kids and seeing them get excited about the food. And seeing that a lot of your favorites are my kids favorites too was awesome! I love that Matt talked about the vegetable serving in the pizza's sauce, it always confused me too. I know there's a lot of controversy when it comes to school lunches but we really do try to make things as healthy as we can with, like Matt said, all the rules and regulations, budgets and people pushing decisions in all directions, there really is soooo much more that goes on in those Nutrition Offices than you realize and it's mostly about making the kids happy and healthy with what we have to work with. I've worked summers in test kitchens and it can be tough to get food to hit all the marks. (stepping down from my soapbox) This was a fun episode, loved that it hit so close to home for me!! My favorite foods from school lunch as a kids were the homemade rolls they used to make and the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and gravy! And back then (when dinosaurs roamed the earth) they still made desserts for us everyday - Yummmmmmmm!!!

My high school had these cookies that were practically the size of your head. They had either chocolate chips or M&Ms in them, and sooo much butter! Weirdest (and in my opinion, best) part of these cookies was that because they were so big and so buttery, they were never totally cooked all the way through. The outside edges were crispy and chewy, but the inside was like safe-to-eat raw cookie dough!

When I was in elementary school, they used to serve pasta once or twice a month. They were the best compared to what we usually ate back there(glowing curries, food that smelt like it’s older than the 6th grade class, and rice that’s sometimes undercooked.)

At my school we have something called “pizza crunchers” which is crispy pizza crust with cheese and sauce inside with marinara sauce to dip it in

The best meal my southern schools would give us was the thanksgiving meal: turkey chunks, bread roll, gravy, stuffing, peach cobbler, and the casual veggies and milk. We never got anything like for the rest of the year and it tasted a lot better than the weird baked chicken they would serve.

My school didn't have the "line up with a tray" cafeteria, rather food stalls where someone can take the spot and sell what food they were selling. Kids who couldn't afford a meal everyday were given food coupons instead that they could claim and these things lasted the entire school year. They eventually moved from a coupon to an electronic card to lessen their use of paper. Where is this? Singapore.

Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and gravy, rolls, ham, pumpkin pie. They did so much and i’m always thankful for them. They also decorated the lunchroom for every holiday.

WHAT I DO THAT TOO AT MY SCHOOL

At my high school everyone brought their own lunch (seniors got to go out to get food as long as they came back) and we would sell pizza to fund our senior trip (or RESELL, we’d get it from like Little Caesar’s and Papa John’s)

honestly, at my school, the best lunches were on Tuesdays. sure, they had taco's, enchilada's, and the usual hamburgers, but the fourth line always had Meatball subs with a bucket of mozzarella. used to pile as much on as I could before eating the meatballs and having a marinara and mozzarella sandwich. Then the year before I graduated, they added curly fries. 10/10, would break into my HS to eat one again.

Fact: brands that have their snacks in school lunches actually change their recipes to meet school lunch health standards, even though their store bought food is MUCH MUCH UNHEALTHIER

Truth. I work in a school cafeteria.

I'm in my senior year, and throughout my entire time at my highschool, "Italian Dunkers" always were the best, the holy grail of school lunches if you will, there were these 4 sticks of flatbread dough stuffed with mozzarella and then browned on the outside and baked, absolutely incredible with ranch, these were very similar to cheesy dippers but our cheese was on the inside

My school had snack and lunch and the best things were at snack but the best thing was a crum cake. Every Wednesday it was there but then all the good snacks like crum cakes, cinnamon rolls, and other pastries were removed. So now the best thing you can get is Cheerios. The lunch was always gross but the best things were the smiley face fries and chicken nuggets.

As a refined Aussie, we have 'tuckshop', with really yummy fresh baked muffins, cakes and biscuits, sushi, meat pies and other really good quality items 💅. it was also mainly preordered so you didn't have to worry about getting there on time!

The average lunch at my school was a slab of “meat” sometimes between two pieces of “bread”. Sometimes we unironically questioned whether or not we were actually getting real food. It also doesn’t help that our school building looks like a remodeled prison. I’m not joking about that last part, our school actually looks like it was once a prison but got turned into a school.

My best school lunch was, and I am not making this up, "Big D's BBQ Chicken Sandwich", Big D being a nickname of one of the kitchen staff. Frozen chicken patty on a whole wheat bun with barbecue sauce and funions or something similar on top. Consistently warm and flavorful, which is a low bar to clear, but I went to a public US high school, so

My favorite lunch was the spicy chicken sandwich! They taste mid right now, but I LOVED them as a kid. I haven’t found a good spicy chicken sandwich since. I’ll forever be on the hunt!

$16 a week for my school lunch. Only good thing about 2021 was the free school lunches. I did some math, and I believe that about 190 kids in my school buy lunch, so my school, per week, gets around $3,000. Not counting extras btw.

My school had a separate “snack line” aka they wouldn’t yell at you if you didn’t get certain things you were supposed to get. They sold baked potatoes in there and for two and a half years when I learned that I had two potatoes a day, so much so I was known as potato girl by the staff and classmates would ask if I legitimately did that.

I also ate carrots with ranch when possible. Our most popular item though was popcorn chicken and mash potatoes with a certain gravy. It was good and amazing with steamed broccoli and a homemade dinner roll. Then again they just had amazing mash potatoes and two different gravy’s.

And without the thing we were allergic to on our tray, we didn't get lunch, so we usually opted not to eat. Then we were asked why we never bought lunch.

Well one day the water fountain.. thing.. broke. So she skipped the beverage because, the only option was milk. And she was allergic to dairy.

We had to get one fruit/veg on our plate or we would get sent back to get said fruit/veg. Ice cups didn't count. You practically were pushed to get milk unless you were allergic. And the milk was DISGUSTANG. That's probably because they got rid of the sugar.

my best friend at my school goes absolutely feral for the chicken burgers (every friday), and my favorite thing is either the normal burgers (every wednesday) or the cheese pasta (like... every three tuesdays roughly)

Bosco sticks! They are so delicious! And with marinara sauce 😋

Best was the limp rectangular pizzas.

I actually have some pretty decent lunches, we sometimes get burgers, corn dogs, toasted cheese sandwiches, pizza, tacos, and more. We also get chocolate milk and juice every single time. Had a toasted cheese sandwich with ham today, actually, and blueberries along with the normal. Also is all free.

I really liked that besides the district-wide lunch each day, we were also given the option of "cold lunch". They usually had sandwiches, wraps, and salads to choose from. Plus a fruit of some kind and the obligatory carton of milk or bottle of water. It was a lifesaver on days where we were being served something I wouldn't have eaten otherwise

Good in theory, but in practice this means schools have to not only staff someone (or multiple people) to maintain said greenhouse, build a green house large enough to produce enough food for an entire school year round, all while making it cheaper than buying frozen pizza for $0.02 per slice from large corporations with a strangle hold on the school lunch industry.

I remember 10+ years ago my High School literally had a laminated print out by the register that explained how the school lunch met regulatory requirements. If memory serves me right the requirements for 2 servings of fruits and vegetables was met by providing a cup of wilted shredded lettuce, a cup of mandarin oranges, and ketchup packets. No joke, they claimed that the ketchup packet counted as a serving of both a vegetable and a fruit. Suffice to say I had a suspicion as to where this video was going.

Your intro is the best thing to eat at school lunch

I had cheese dippers, they used to be melted mozerrlla style breadsticks with sauce to dip . After a year or so the cheese stopped being fully melted.

When I was in middle school, I remember a school lunch that was even more of a "serve the leftovers" sort of thing. One day, they served a pizza that they called "chef's choice" and I didn't even try it, because everything screamed that they were just slapping together uneaten food from previous lunches. The crust was the only thing normal about it (I think--maybe that was weird too, for all I know). Instead of tomato sauce, it had Thousand Island dressing. Instead of the standard cheese, it was feta. And instead of pepperoni, it had french fries. And after that day, a week later, my siblings in elementary school at the time reported that they got the same thing, making me seriously wonder if they were just serving the elementary school the uneaten food of the middle school (and did that mean the middle school was getting the high school's unwanted food?).
