Yeah this needs to be a thing everywhere. For the first time I'm having to do lunches for my kids and while it isn't bothering me, I can only imagine others who are in my shoes who haven't had that expense before now, who suddenly do and are less able to withstand it.

The past few years the school district I live in gave free lunches to all kids too. They're not doing it this year, though. I think the money dried up, unfortunately. It's a great thing and I'm glad California is doing it.

good. This is good for people that are above the income threshold where they don't qualify for free lunch, but also can't afford lunch/breakfast 5 times a week for each child.

Nuclear take: Free-lunch stigma is now extended to everyone. Either you're in the a-la-carte line, or you're poor.

People have no idea how many legal protections and positive social development come from California. That state is propping up the union.

This is great. I just wonder how this will work because I know some schools here have contracts with brands to sell things like soda, heated frozen food, and shit like that rather than prepared meals.

That's been a thing since Covid almost everywhere in the US.

Granted, some schools are starting to go back to not providing it because the federal dollars aren't there anymore this fall.

Idk about that. The prepared meals we used to get in elementary school were way better than the junk food we were forced to buy in middle and highschool.

Hopefully it's healthy lunches and not the bullshit rubbery pizza and corndogs or sugar added / artificial fruit juice like we used to have.

At least around here there are so many lunches with cheese. Meat is barely ever on the menu. Maybe chicken nuggets once a month. Same for hot dog and hamburgers. Mostly pizza, grilled cheese, cheese on bread but somehow not called grilled cheese or pizza, pasta with sauce and breakfast for lunch (seems to be weekly). Kids though I was lying when I said we used to get fish sticks at lunches (they never had) and that meat was pretty much daily.

Funniest shit was that would cut a bagel in half and call it a croissant for the free breakfast.

For a long time I thought all of America did this, but apparently kids have to pay for their lunch.

Yeah, lunch debt is a thing in America too. Schools will refuse to give you your diploma and other punishments too. If your family is poor you often can get a free or reduced price lunch, though.

TV makes it seem like those meals are free for everyone lol. And they always look low quality so what are you paying for lol.

Here though parents or kids have to make the lunch so we're still behind lol.

Wow 3 lols
