It’s a ridiculous idea to think kids are going to eat tofu and black bean salads for lunch. All of it is just going to end up in the trash can and those kids are going to be starving when they get home.

Perhaps, yet they do not need 5 servings of corn, potatoes, bread, pasta and did I mention corn and potatoes.

Many of the foods we eat are basically corn and potatoes. Cheap and all carbs. And people wonder why they can’t lose weight.

I’ve found that most kids will eat what is put in front of them if they are hungry. I remember lunch time (in high school anyway) is more about social stuff than it is the food.

What about chickpeas and black bean salad? Perhaps with some chicken chunks?
