Wordless Wednesday: School Lunch

It’s disgusting that that is what we’re feeding our children at school. I did some rough calculations, and that meal has: 894 calories, 25g fat, 1.5g trans fat, 76mg cholesterol, 2519mg sodium, 134g carbs, 45g sugar and 34g protein. That’s almost half a day’s worth of calories, well more than an entire day’s allowance for sodium, and no one should eat trans fat in any amount. Not too mention all the sugar from the milk, ketchup and fruit.
That’s what it looks like at the high school I went to as well… Nice and yucky. The chocolate milk was always good though. Mine is up to @ http://keriskorner.blogspot.com Happy WW! Keri
UGH. Just looking at it makes me sick. If I ate school lunches daily I would be seriously ill.
Loaded with fats and sugar. It’s no wonder the kids can’t stay awake or act up in school. Where are the healthy fruits, vegetables and plain good old meat. Everything looks processed. Disgusting!
this reminds me of the awful things I used to eat in school. We had something called the “traveling taco”. Kids would pick red or blue flavoured bag of Doritos and the lunch lady would open it and scoop in some burger meat, grated cheddar cheese and sour cream…all utra processed of course and you would then empty it out on to a styrofoam tray and eat it with a fork… and I’d usually drink a coke with that and head to the candystore afterwards for lemonheads to suck on to try to keep me up thru the next class. very unhealthy and very un-green. I was aware of healthy eating at the time and knew this was terrible, but I often didn’t wake up early enough to pack a lunch and all my friends would be eating this crap.
