Lunch or Bust

You look at your lunch. You can’t decide whether it’s pizza or ravioli. People around you poke the substance to make sure it’s not living. School food can be VERY disgusting, even at Sunridge Middle School. I personally bring my lunch to school, because I don’t like the school’s downhill tasting lunch. Many people complain,as do I, about the taste of this “food”. What most people complain about is our tater tots can be burnt,as can the pizza, bread, and many other menu items. The second biggest complaint is that everything is too greasy, literally dripping in grease. Bland noodles, revolting spaghetti sauce, mayonnaise tasting ranch, no thousand island dressing, and warm or frozen milk are other constant issues. not only is the food disgusting, but there is also miniscule portions. According to the nutrition standards released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in January 2012, middle school students need a range of 600 to 700 calories. Many school lunches don't taste or look appealing, so students don't eat much of it This causes hunger pains in various middle and high schools, along with collapsing from lack of nutrients, exhaustion, and stealing other's food. Wallace County school students are protesting against this healthier food that tastes like rubber.  We need to bring our lunches and protest against these substances they call “food” to bring about better tasting meals at the same nutritional value.
