On my observation day the menu for school lunch was, mashed potatoes and gravy, sticky chicken fingers, whole wheat roll, broccoli, and a cup of mixed fruit. As I watched the kids through the line the majority of the students did not take the broccoli. I watched a class of 30 students go through, out of those 30 students, 3 of them accepted the offer of broccoli. Classes after that had about the same ratio as the first one.

Should students be limited to what they can and can not eat at school? The principle should not change the school lunch menu because, students should be allowed to choose what they want to eat, some students may not eat at all because they do not like anything the cafeteria has to offer, and this limits what the students can eat. Students should be allowed to choose what type of food they eat. Not every students wants to eat only healthy food, they are going to at least want some sort of snack

Students would not like the fact that all their favorite foods are gone. Also, students would start packing their own lunches at home and bringing their packed lunch to school. Some kids might just go without eating all together. Teachers could start to complain or the lunch lady's about the lunch change. Another thing is the
amongst high school students, is whether students should be allowed to leave the cafeteria and school campus for lunch. At high school age, students are usually driving and have a job, allowing money to be provided to them.

I went to the Free Lunch Program on Saturday, August 28th. I got there at noon and people had just started getting their food. There was a line inside that went to the door. There were also quite a few individuals sitting outside of the facility.

Everyone knows that school lunch is greasy, unhealthy, and gross. Some students can not afford to bring lunch to school everyday, therefore leaving them no choice but to eat the school lunch.
