School Lunch

The students of our school should rally together and hang the cooks in the Cafeteria. Well, maybe that is a little too dramatic, but something has to be done about the school lunch. The stuff that they serve the students is truly awful. Students should not be forced to eat in the cafeteria because the meals are not prepared well, there are foreign objects in the deserts, and many kids have gotten ill after eating certain items. Initially, sometimes the lunch is left over. To know if it is left over it will look wrinkly or dried up. Sometimes when I enter the cafeteria the smell just hit me in face. When the cafeteria smells bad, it is because people throw things on the ground and it starts to smell, but usually I don’t recognize it. The last time I was in the cafeteria two girls were fighting because the hot dog looked nasty and they were criticizing each other about who’s hotdog is better and who don’t want this and that.

    At State University, the school has a set of certain hours that one is able to go to the cafeteria. However, those hours only comply with the workers and the students no matter what. To many of the students, and others as well, those hours are not compliable to their schedule. Students are left with hunger, having no choice than to be late to class to go buy a snack or go off campus to buy fast food, when not necessary. Not all the students have the same class schedule which should be able to allow different cafeteria hours to comply to everyone's needs, not only certain people.

  • Kids Across America Forced to Eat School Lunch

    1399 Words  | 3 Pages

    Many have come to the conclusion that several schools around the United States are not looking after their students the way that they should be. It is sad and very scary to parents when they hear that their kid(s) and/or other children haven’t eaten, were forced to eat something they didn’t want, or had a severe allergic reaction to something they were forced to eat. These conditions aren’t safe and should be looked upon very seriously. Kids look up to these workers and teachers; they see them as very powerful adult figures. Parents teach their kids to respect adults, and be obedient to them, but how can this be effective if what the adult tells them could possibly hurt them or put the child in some sort of danger? Forcing kids to eat school lunch is not a good idea, nobody wants to be responsible for a lost life.

    When the United Sates federal government set new regulations on what schools had to provide for lunch for their students, a lot of people weren’t pleased with what was happening. Especially when students started complaining of hunger after having had their school provided lunch. With the new regulations, the price of lunches went up. The new rules made eating lunch from school more expensive and it made it clear that most students, especially elementary, won’t or refuse to eat the healthier foods. Obviously, the school systems were going to need to find a way to ease their students into eating the healthier foods that they now needed to offer. The federal government used Michele Obama to promote eating healthier and getting active, but the program for healthier school lunches was called a failure after some time. There are so many things that people could say about the new rules regarding school lunches, but all of those things would result in nothing. When our government set these rules on school lunches, there was no fighting what was currently happening and no going back on what we were accustomed to.

After everyone is through eating, someone will suggest that we leave and we will all take our trays up to the dishwashing counter and then leave. Near the tray drop-off counter, we are hit with hot, sticky air from the dishwashing. We quickly leave our trays and continue out of the cafeteria as a group. On our way out we talk to each other and friends that we see sitting at other tables. Often, students will plan out what they will do later in the day while talking to friends and finding out what is going on. Eventually, the group will split up and goodbyes are said.
