Don’t misunderstand me - I am very grateful that our schools continuedto provide lunches during the COVID19 shutdown. I realize that many families depend on the school meals to feed their kids. Especially now. But, now that I had an opportunity to actually see what the school lunch is - I am disappointed. Both of my kids refused to buy lunches at school ever since we moved to IL (from PA to MI, to here). I thought they were just picky and packed everyday. But now that I tasted the main meal - I can see why. The snacks are fine. It’s the pizza/chicken/ham etc. that i am concerned with. With a fairly high taxes, I thought schools would be able to get a lunch supplier that can provide quality food. In Michigan elementary school kids had Jets pizza, cinnamon sticks, beef burger, white chicken strips, thick white turkey sandwiches. When they couldn’t finish lunch - they often brought leftovers home and gladly ate afterwards. So again, I am not trying to sound picky, I am just wondering - why is the quality of lunch here what it is? Is it the state wide supplier? Is there anything that can be done about it? The lunch cost in PA and MI was comparable, and I lived in very comparable neighborhoods. I am sorry if I am offending anyone.
