re: #33 freetoken

I just don’t understand that. When I went to school, many many years ago, we had hot lunches. We all got the same thing (or perhaps a choice of two entrees).

Perhaps I lived in an extraordinarily civilized state in this nation, but are Texas schools really intent on segregating children based on whether they can pay for a lunch?

The cold sandwiches and PB&Js are for teh poorz. The kids that can pay get the hot lunches.

There were a few times back in grade school where I’d forgotten my lunch money and had to go to the office and get a lunch voucher. That voucher would get you a truly awful PB&J on dry bread and a carton of milk. The district wanted to save money so they used really cheap ingredients, and it showed.
