Onions and Potatoes. That's two veggies, wayyy too healthy.

[–]Zelcron 58 points59 points ago

Ketchup makes three.

[–]choppd 6 points7 points ago

Wait, the tomatoes that make the ketchup are fruit right?

[–]willscy 3 points4 points ago

scientifically, yes. Agriculturally, no.

[–]choppd -2 points-1 points ago

Sounds like we need to make a new name for questionable fruits that could be vegetables

[–]willscy 0 points1 point ago

Well it is technically a fruit, but people eat it like a vegetable not like a fruit so for all intents and purposes it may as well be a vegetable.

[–]choppd 4 points5 points ago

Lol, thanks for the clarification

[–]ml_lund24 0 points1 point ago

I can see how they would think it was a veggie.

[–]TheClayroo 1 point2 points ago

And for those not in a country of imbeciles?

[–]richalex2010 3 points4 points ago

On the plant, it's a fruit. In the kitchen, it's a vegetable. Vegetable is actually purely a culinary category, all vegetables are considered something else when growing (i.e. fruit, legumes, roots, etc).

[–]intensenerd 13 points14 points ago

Probably mustard on the burger. 4 veggies. Healthiest lunch so far.

[–]PrimeIntellect 11 points12 points ago

Obviously, but it still doesn't mean you should feed kids huge portions of deep fried breaded foods and burgers every day, especially when they likely have zero nutritional knowledge

[–]Your_Post_Is_Metal 10 points11 points ago

Maybe it's fatty food day? Maybe the rest of the week they eat organic soy curd and drink vegan water?

[–]foreverofbff 4 points5 points ago

There's a vegan water? Is it different from regular water? Can I get vegan powers if I drink it?

[–]Critikill81 11 points12 points ago

[–]Earthtone_Coalition 0 points1 point ago

This is actually correct, though it's more commonly referred to as a "weekday."

[–]readforit 2 points3 points ago

it does but if we could just figure out why our children are obese and have heart disease ....

[–]Veloci-Raptor 55 points56 points ago

This isn't a school lunch, nice try though.

[–]sandandsoda 11 points12 points ago

I went to highs cool just outside of Chicago and this could have been one of our lunches but most kids opted for the cheesy fries.

[–]isofat 18 points19 points ago

That's what many school lunches look like. You just typically need to pay for each individual item. OPs lunch would typically cost $6.

[–]Turdible 1 point2 points ago

6 bucks? Jesus. Sounds good

[–]Earthtone_Coalition 3 points4 points ago

Huh? What makes you say that?

At my high school we had a variety of foods and we could purchase whatever we wanted a la carte. Cheeseburgers and fries were among the foods on offer, though I don't think we had onion rings. I usually got either the pepperoni pizza or the fried chicken sandwich topped with tomato-flavored high fructose corn syrup, washed down with either orange-flavored sugar or chocolate-flavored sugar.

[–]rhysbans 2 points3 points ago

That what my school lunch looked like.

[–]levirules -3 points-2 points ago

It may or may not be... but I've definitely had more unhealthy looking lunches at my high school in NY state. One word: chinichanga.

Easy, it's a typo, the n is next to the m and I'm on a phone.

Also, I wasn't trying to say they are bad. I was trying to say that the ones at my high school were bad. They were some sort of puke/grease stew in a hardened greasy case. I bet real chimichangas are great.

[–]YoungSerious 0 points1 point ago

A chimichanga is basically a deep-fried burrito. So yes they are awesome.

[–]Chefbexter 0 points1 point ago

We had "taquitos" which were tortillas rolled up into a cylinder and filled with grease. And meat, but mostly grease.

[–]Veloci-Raptor 1 point2 points ago

"taquitos" are actually a thing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taquito

[–]Chefbexter 0 points1 point ago

I know. I was using quote marks to highlight my public school's bastardization of what could be an awesome dish.

[–]CoffinRehersal -2 points-1 points ago

It's called a chimichanga, dude, and when made properly it is fucking delicious. I'm not surprised that the chimis in NY are garbage though.

[–]Learned__Hand 2 points3 points ago

Nah, they are Chinichanga's. Because they are guaranteed to provide additional Chins.

[–]levirules 0 points1 point ago

Just a typo.

[–]levirules 0 points1 point ago

Just a typo.

[–]mononomore 0 points1 point ago

Hey so was it a typo or not??

[–]patio87 0 points1 point ago

This is the shit that is offered though. Cheeseburgers, fries, pizza, standard stuff. If you want to buy this for a lunch you are more than free to. I literally don't remember any healthy choices in my schools. It's bad, especially when you're 12 and don't really understand caloric intake.

[–]bagi2009 20 points21 points ago

I work for the CPS, What school is giving you that? It should be about half if anything. Our school lunches are nothing alike. Just saying.

[–]youchosetodrinkit 17 points18 points ago

you should probably strike again.

[–]bagi2009 5 points6 points ago

Not a teacher. Not in union.

[–]youchosetodrinkit 0 points1 point ago

in that case, what were your thoughts on the strike?

[–]bagi2009 -1 points0 points ago

It was the right thing to do. :/ They increase the school day, they should pay the teachers more because they are working more hours. > .> They never got the 15% they wanted. Ended up getting about 5% on average across the board.

Then the CPS board got mad because they kept saying they didn't have the budget. . . And the the Union got all Well then don't extend the school day then. . . And bickered back and forth. . .

Personal opinion on the whole issue, I don't think they should have increased school hours at all. Students are now in school from 7:45-3:45. . . That's 8 hours every day. The more sensible thing to do was shorten the school day by about half and hour, close down several of the under performing schools to free up some of the budget, and work on a better curriculum. Create more competition for the jobs, and pressure the Union to make a better system in general.

[–]patio87 1 point2 points ago

The whole school system is a fucking joke. There is NO reason kids need to be in school that long. Just talk to any homeschooled kid, they're highly educated and MAY have spent 2 hours a day doing state required school work.

[–]TyrannyMcbane 0 points1 point ago

As a homeschooled kid (online) I can definitely attest to this. It'll take me four hours a day if I'm screwing around on reddit or other things a lot and the results are waaay better then they were in public school last year.

[–]Coco92144 6 points7 points ago

I'm guessing if this is a school lunch that OP ordered it that way. In my high school there was a menu line for lunch that had normal lunch things like formed BBQ "ribs", chicken patties, burgers. Whatever was on the menu that day. But you could also buy fries, milkshakes, pretzels, chips, etc. This can't be what was on the menu. Parents would throw a fit.

[–]bagi2009 3 points4 points ago

Actually, sadly enough half of what OP posted is a normal lunch. I was just amazed at how much stuff he got. :/

[–]GiveMeOneGoodReason 5 points6 points ago

I can bet he got a double lunch. No way that's the normal serving for one person.

[–]bagi2009 0 points1 point ago

Most likely.

[–]HaricotNoir 3 points4 points ago

I've attended multiple schools that offered lunches from fast food joints (Burger King, Carl's Jr., McD's, In N Out) as an "alternative" to the school lunches. The chains send out an official corporate food truck and park it on campus and sell until they're out of ingredients. This looks like it could have come from one of those.

[–]MathildaLando 1 point2 points ago

Is this even legal? oO

[–]HaricotNoir 0 points1 point ago

It always puzzled me why they did this, knowing that middle schoolers - given the choice and lunch money from their parents - would always go with the junk food. Presumably the school/district got a portion of the sales? No idea. I was a brown bagger so it was irrelevant to me.

Only the kids who were on the low income lunch programs seemed to actually eat the school food.

[–]HypoWombat 0 points1 point ago

This looks fucking disgusting. Fried onion rings, french fries and burgers for school lunch? It's not just about the double portions since every single goddamn item on the tray is just wrong if you want kids to eat even remotely healthily.

[–]andy921 3 points4 points ago

Wow. This can't be a public school though. Where I went to HS the government decided to limit the calories in our lunches to prevent obesity. They didn't make any effort to improve lunches though or make them more healthy. They just cut the amount of food we got.

I had to choose whether I got a single slice of shitty pizza or the soggy french fries. Couldn't have both anymore. I was still hungry after lunch every day. God I envy you.

[–]prettyprincess90 1 point2 points ago

Honestly it looks delicious but nothing there is healthy. That is the biggest problem, where is the nutritious food? This is why "merica is overweight.

[–]Blubalz 3 points4 points ago

False...there are onions and potatoes. Onions and potatoes = vegetables. That makes this meal healthy because it has vegetables.

[–]gcreaver 2 points3 points ago

Don't forget four servings of ketchup, why this meal's got all the veggies a growing kid needs all day!

[–]gayunicornrainbows 2 points3 points ago

Strolling, rolling, bounding, bouncing across Europe, people often ask me what it means to be an American. I tell'em it's triumph. Triumph. Triumph when we nuke our enemies. Triumph when when peer down from the moon and laugh heartily at Russia. Triumph when we depose one dictator after another. Triumph when we break into the homes of terrorist kingpins on the other side of Earth and shoot them in the face. Triumph when whe use flying robots to bomb other terrorists in Afghanistan, and other nuclear robots to explore Mars. Triumph when we free Europe from nazis. Triumph. Triumph. Triumph

But it's not just the the big things, see? It's the way an Italian cabbie sits up straight and floors the gas when he hears my accent. It's seeing the wide eyes and bead of sweat running down the forehead of a German customs agent when he opens my passport. It's the way a French waiter hangs his head when I refuse the wine and ask for Coke instead, in English knowing full well he understands me.

The way an Aussie blushes and leans into the urinal next to me in the bathroom, or the scowl that meets my smirk when I tip an English waiter in US dollars covered with Washington's face. The way small mobs of Canadian school children follow me from a distance to see what a free man looks like, or how heads timidly rise and women gather when my accent stops the music in the clubs Amsterdam.

Triumph. Every bit of it, triumph. Thats what it means to be an American

Did you pay for it or was that lunch provided to you? I think thats the point.

My highschool had similiar stuff but it was pricey for a highschool student. I treated myself once or twice a week. Otherwise it was oatmeal wet with fountain water or w/e leftovers I could dig up

Except that one time my Uncle made me a steak with blue cheese melt on top, and onion and mushrooms on the side and sent me off with a bag of hot peppers and olives. I think I had grilled veggies and mashed potatoes as a side.

Goddamn that was a good lunch.
