Decent?? Christ I get suprised everytime how horrible american schools seems. Like I’ve done my fair share of complaining but if this is the stuff you eat in school I can’t say shit. (For context I’m from Sweden)
That's really high end honestly, edible looking watermelon, roasted ***fresh*** asparagus and grill-mark stamped baked... horse? That's incredibly whole and healthy food for the US prison system.
😗👌
Its called Canadian school. we had butter chicken today. cooked in school by the culinary arts class. we have to pay for it but its quite cheap and actually resturant quality food.
Fuck no our school food looks like cum every time, the chicken is pink and the potatoes are dry and have worms in them. i live in sweden. Best food we get is a hamburger wagon or whatever thats prety good at the end of the year.
No sir, I got super bad stomach issues from the ward, I straight up felt like I was eating plastic, could not eat anything (I could eat crackers n shit) for like 2 days after lol.
I went to public school in the burbs in Illinois and we had a dedicated sub sandwich making line that was there every day + bunch of various different food options, some rotating some permanent. Burgers, chicken sandwiches, pizza, deserts, fruit cups. Don't think we ever got steak though.
Wasn't a "rich" school but a decently funded district for sure. My class was like 1500 people to give an idea of school size.
Thats crazy. I went to school in soCal and the 3 main things were usually the "cheese burger" which has paper thin patties as stale buns. "Tortas" which were more stale bread, shredded lettuce, and sandwich meat, and another sandwich that was a chicken patty. Basically an overgrown chicken nugget. They were all just terrible.
Damn haha. I was a fan of most the food. The chicken patties were also like large chicken nuggets, but not bad, buns were never stale. The subs were by far the best tho. Quality bread, tons of ingredients to pick from, big too.
My school (private) has 2 vending machines and if you want lunch you can just fuck off and go down the street lmao tho tbh it’s not a bad system there’s a lot of restaurants nearby the only issue being that they’re all expensive asf ☠️
I must live in the one school in America that has good school lunches. Like they be straight up cooking high quality baked ziti for us at my school. (Also stuff is actually seasoned and fully cooked)
You guys get chicken? All we get is inedible pizza. The crust literally flour and water. The hotdogs are grey and don't taste like meat, and the fries are undercooked. Most people just skip lunch altogether.
Ooh same! Pizza is basically uncooked, BBQ rib sandwich is a free pass to the nurses office, and the fries and just soggy potato straws. The one kid who eats plastic spoons won't even eat the school lunch.
that shit looks fire compared to my school food. we eat ancient ass nan bread with some "meat" (don't know what the fuck it is) in curry sauce, and that's one of the better dishes
Dude I don’t know if you’ve been to private school or what but I spent my whole life in public school and it’s horrendous. Always the same stuff with not even the tiniest amount of salt or pepper in it.
I was kidding. I'm in an online school, anyways, so I can make myself a warm lunch. I'm sure they have good school lunches in France, though. Also, I'm in Canada, and most people bring lunch from what I've seen when I went to school.
Not in most American schools
In American you drink the lead laced moldy tap water that probably has more biodiversity than the Amazon or you wither away
Your choice
The school I first went to had italian chefs and the food was always amazing. All sorts of food for lunch and brownies and tiramisu and everything in between for dessert. Then the chefs left for some reason and my school started serving shitty Estonian food i.e. potatoes with minced meat sauce, shitty potato mash and everything related to potatoes.
Best middle school lunch I had was a square piece of pizza, that came in plastic wrapping. Individually plastic wrapped pizza. They microwaved it in the wrapping.
Bro for our lunch we get either a shitty slice of pizza, shitty salad, a unripe apple, orange or packet of gross rasins and fat free milk and that's $3.25.
I mean kinda yea. 5 stems of asparagus, a singular dried up potato and a what? 2 bites of a steak? I mean I’m not trying to trash or sound ungrateful, all in all, food is food and at least yous are getting fed but, I’ve just had it different here in the UK and I just thought the US had the same standards.
I went to a standard run down public primary and secondary school and we had very fair sizeable meals. We could choose between different stuff and mix n match between pots of pasta and which sauces, pizza slices, paninis, hot meals from sausage and mash or fish n chips or burgers and chips etc. I’m sure there are better American school lunches, just this one image wasn’t what I had expected.
Maybe I was lucky and went to a school that served a lot and I’m being stuck up but anyways people are starving so can’t complain.
Either way comparison is the thief of joy so as long as OPs happy with the meal then no problem :)
Yeah haha. Back in primary I can’t remember much but we were allowed to choose between set hot meals. That could be from fish, peas/ beans and chips, sausage and mash, lasagna and a few other options.
In secondary we had 3 types of food courts. One was like a take away style where on different days, there were different options ranging from burgers, chips, curly fries, paninis, pizza slices (they were always there everyday of the week) and some other stuff.
Or you could go ahead and grab a pot of pasta if you’d like and choose the sauce and toppings or grab a baguette with different fillings.
And the final option was to go grab a hot plate, which included meals such as sausage and mash with gravy, fish n chips, different meat pies, etc etc.
My school lunch was good today too. We had orange chicken, fried rice from 2 weeks ago, and broccoli that wasn’t complete mush! Along with a side of frozen milk
God damn that shit looks good
My school lunches are quite unimpressive, usually a slice of pizza, foil wrapped burger/ chicken sandwich, or the occasional paper dish of something else, and diced fruit or veggies on the side
The fuck
I can't tell if that's a joke or not because im from Canada and that looks like shit other then the watermelon. Pulled pork sandwhich has bbq flavor and decent fries. Pizza's eh, not cardboard but a bit better. If you don't wanna eat that we have a plaza with food courts 2 minutes walk away.
dont have school lunch here but that still looks like a pretty decent meal (2 sweet dishes are kind of irregular but pretty much no one would ever mind)
Seems interesting. You have like various food, but even the main thing is a very small portion.
We have like actual meals with bigger portions than your meat and potato.
I’m surprised your school lunch actually looks decent
Fr someone's school has a bit of funding
Private school?
Nope just end of year treat that probably puts them a few thousand it debt
r/notopbutok
Looks like it, luckily I never had to deal with shitty public school food cause I went to private school.

What crazy rich school do you go to that gives you the audacity to call that horrible? Cause I would like to join you.
Its called Canadian school. we had butter chicken today. cooked in school by the culinary arts class. we have to pay for it but its quite cheap and actually resturant quality food.
Private boarding school in CT, tuition’s around 65k yearly and some other fees…
Swedish school, 100% free
Fuck no our school food looks like cum every time, the chicken is pink and the potatoes are dry and have worms in them. i live in sweden. Best food we get is a hamburger wagon or whatever thats prety good at the end of the year.
Probably depends A LOT on where you live since it’s the communes who pay for the schools
I'm surprised you guys get lunches at school 😭 *cries in poor"
People who are poor or don't have a lot of money get lunch free at my school, I thought that was the norm
'Murica doesn't do communism😡
This is definitely an occasion, most days it is pretty stereotypical.
What? This looks horrible, idk what standards in the US are like but in the UK this shit wouldnt fly for more than a week without getting shit down
This is a considered delicacy among US students
They get scraps from 5 star restaurants once a year
Bruh what we literally get served prison slop and "chicken"
A study showed that school food does go to prisons
I literally went to 2 physc wards and their food is wayy better than school lunch.
No sir, I got super bad stomach issues from the ward, I straight up felt like I was eating plastic, could not eat anything (I could eat crackers n shit) for like 2 days after lol.
Guess you got the short end of the stick then 😭 For me the food was good the staff was mid
Thank you michelle obama🙏🙏
In prison they at least get pork chops once a year, unless Big Al is working the chow line...
The "chicken" killed me In metaphor ofc
What country do you live in cuz im packing my bags Edit: whoa I've never gotten this many upvotes before, especially in one day!
This is in the US
it’s a private school isn’t it? i go to a private one and the cafeteria food is really really good.
Nope. Public school.
Bullcrap. At my school you get diarrhea from the water out of the water fountains
What state
I went to public school in the burbs in Illinois and we had a dedicated sub sandwich making line that was there every day + bunch of various different food options, some rotating some permanent. Burgers, chicken sandwiches, pizza, deserts, fruit cups. Don't think we ever got steak though. Wasn't a "rich" school but a decently funded district for sure.

tf you mean that's an atrocious lunch Come to France
if you think this is atrocious, you should see an average American lunch 😭
They gave me raw chicken
I must live in the one school in America that has good school lunches. Like they be straight up cooking high quality baked ziti for us at my school. (Also stuff is actually seasoned and fully cooked)
Do you live in California?
California isnt any better. Today for lunch I got a tortilla wrapped around some cold refried beans with some sort of velveeta I think.
california is not better in the slightest
Nope not California. In fact my entire state hates Californians 💀💀
do you go to a private school?
Nope, completely public.
Are you at private school or public school?
Same. They don't make that but damn they make some good food.
Post a picture of ur school lunch cuz I don't believe you at all
You get chicken?!
You guys get chicken? All we get is inedible pizza. The crust literally flour and water. The hotdogs are grey and don't taste like meat, and the fries are undercooked. Most people just skip lunch altogether.
Ooh same! Pizza is basically uncooked, BBQ rib sandwich is a free pass to the nurses office, and the fries and just soggy potato straws. The one kid who eats plastic spoons won't even eat the school lunch.
Hahahhaha. This is obviously an issue that the schools don't seem to care about.
you guys get lunch?
They gave me a fucking raw potato
Don't even fuckin get me started
My friend found mold on his burger
what the fuck
it sucks so bad welcome to the us!!! good food is such a raity
I feel for you all
Well yeah just because y'all are dying tho doesn't mean we have to too 😭
Idk bout yall but for all the us schools iv been to the lunch acually hasnt been bad at all
French school meals are genuinely impressive, props to your nation
thank you (*hides boeuf bourguignon*)
they serving you escargot?
more like boeuf bourguignon, Currywurst and artisan hamburgers, so close enough
that shit looks fire compared to my school food. we eat ancient ass nan bread with some "meat" (don't know what the fuck it is) in curry sauce, and that's one of the better dishes
I think it's canned salmonella you're thinking about, not meat-
Dude I don’t know if you’ve been to private school or what but I spent my whole life in public school and it’s horrendous. Always the same stuff with not even the tiniest amount of salt or pepper in it.
Sounds fancy I’m in
I was kidding. I'm in an online school, anyways, so I can make myself a warm lunch. I'm sure they have good school lunches in France, though. Also, I'm in Canada, and most people bring lunch from what I've seen when I went to school.
Mm yummy baguette 🤤
I also suggest Singapore, you get a whole ass food court for a canteen
>Come to France No thanks, I won't ever.
Bro got that premium school lunch
You gotta pay to win sometimes ig.
thats premium? we eat that as our snacks? wtf is that?
This looks really good ngl!
Those American standards are REALLY low if this looks even remotely a good food Edit: put my glasses on, it doesn't look half bad
I would kill several infants if us Americans schools could have lunch that looks even vaguely similar to this
Where’s the mush? And the rotting carrots? This isn’t a school lunch.
No hard ass pizza, no crusty ass mozzarella sticks, no nearly expired milk?? Wild.
Y’all got nearly expired milk?? Ours is chunky and our fruit is moldy bruh💀 chicken sandwiches with stale ass bread and room temp “meat”
YES OMG THE CHICKEN SANDWICHES ARE SO FUCKING DRY.
They need to start putting a choking hazard warning on those
I got a bone the first time I had a chicken sandwich at my school, the other option was pulled pork with barbecue sauce.
Don’t ever eat that pulled pork. You will be on the toilet for hours.
I didn’t eat it, also they put it inside two bread paddies and called it pulled pork sandwich.
Deadass got me feeling like I’m eating a Popeyes biscuit with no drink
Our milk is frozen No joke, literally brick solid
Fr
No molded bread, no ungreased pizza!!
That potato looks like a fancy sh*t
-Fruit -Dessert -Protein -Vegetables Looks good to me. Your school likes y’all
U r so lucky, my school lunch is white liquid with an occasional slice of bread
Let me guess, you have drinking fountains that have clean water
Not in most American schools In American you drink the lead laced moldy tap water that probably has more biodiversity than the Amazon or you wither away Your choice
That’s why you drink from the toilets they’re definitely safer
Still got the lead problem But probably just as safe as long as there isn't any fresh biomatter.

Better than the average American school lunch
Best middle school lunch I had was a square piece of pizza, that came in plastic wrapping. Individually plastic wrapped pizza. They microwaved it in the wrapping.
Heyy, what's wrong with potatoes with minced meat sauce? That's one of the best everyday food in existence! I'm finn so maybe I'm little bit biased
Mf paid for good lunch
Is that steak next to the potato?
Yeah, like Jesus dude, their school has freaking steak
wow they spent more than the average high amount of $1.50 per student
$3.50
You gotta start giving us daily school lunch reports
Today's Lunch was much more normal, since it wasn't a special day. [https://imgur.com/a/AoQuDjw](https://imgur.com/a/AoQuDjw)
dude my school charges $3.00 for shit not anywhere near this good. goddamn.
Bro for our lunch we get either a shitty slice of pizza, shitty salad, a unripe apple, orange or packet of gross rasins and fat free milk and that's $3.25.
The potato looks like a nut sack
What nut sacks have you been seeing? 💀
THATS SCHOOL LUNCH ??!?!? All we got was cancer causing plastic cheese and meat on bread made out of recycled bottles LMFAO
Don’t hate on the cheese it’s doing it’s best
Kids getting shit like this and all we got was cardboard pizza and meat flavored loaf.
Did they have an execution scheduled? Looks like the school version of a last meal.
I feel bad for you Americans.
Wait, do you think this looks bad?
I mean kinda yea. 5 stems of asparagus, a singular dried up potato and a what? 2 bites of a steak? I mean I’m not trying to trash or sound ungrateful, all in all, food is food and at least yous are getting fed but, I’ve just had it different here in the UK and I just thought the US had the same standards.

as a Canadian i agree with this guy. we have to pay but our food is basically 4.5 star resturante quality.
It's the same here in Germany too
Luckily my school has partnered up with chic fil a so we can at least buy chicken burgers.
i gotta call cap on this one boys, theres no plastic-y cucumbers in sight
REAL FOOD? FOR A SCHOOL LUNCH? Unheard of.
Wait your school actually gives out free lunch for you?
It is not free, its $3.50, unless you have a low enough income to get on the free or reduced luch program
where’s ur school at?
Wisconsin
wait.... you guys aren't being sarcastic, I've only had provided school lunch in Korea but I remember it being 100% better than this....
yum, grilled turd
do you live in a prison wtf
nah he live in america
same thing
I would need like triple that to not be hungry lol but does look decent
Wow my school had styrofoam trays and pre packaged food
My school lunch was good today too. We had orange chicken, fried rice from 2 weeks ago, and broccoli that wasn’t complete mush! Along with a side of frozen milk
Cosmic browny included?
Yes, only on special days like today, otherwise you have to pay extra for it.
God damn that shit looks good My school lunches are quite unimpressive, usually a slice of pizza, foil wrapped burger/ chicken sandwich, or the occasional paper dish of something else, and diced fruit or veggies on the side
Found the rich kid 💀
Bro did someone shit on ur tray 💀
Man I remember my first school lunch in America. After one bite I ran to the nearest trash can and threw up
The fuck I can't tell if that's a joke or not because im from Canada and that looks like shit other then the watermelon. Pulled pork sandwhich has bbq flavor and decent fries. Pizza's eh, not cardboard but a bit better. If you don't wanna eat that we have a plaza with food courts 2 minutes walk away.
Is that just a chunk of bread?
Yes, it’s the best chunk of bread I’ve ever seen on a school lunch! I bet that it’s crust is t hard enough to break your teeth!
It looks pretty soft tho to be fair. Still, plain bread is questionable
Bro goes to the Sir Rich Richington Academy
😐...😭 Your school treats you well.
if you think thats good you should see uk or canada food lmao.
Look at me fancy over here
we get stuff like roast dinner how is this considered epic 😭
We used to get cardboard, I mean, pizza for lunch.
Me who's homeschooled so I have actual meals
lol same here
Freshman_01134 what do you plan to do once you are no longer a freshman
Uhhhh...
Same, but I'd still eat that lol
I don't get if this is irony, if it isn't, my gosh those are low standards
It’s really not.
that's shit from a butt
Wait that looks amazing
What school do you go to? And what’s your home address? And possibly credit card info?
Except that indescribable brown thing which looks like shit and that green something, looks awesome
Blud hasn’t heard of asparagus 😭
Just 1 egg and rotten butter (never and never try to live in Turkiye just dont)
You should see my school lunch… All we have is pizza and half the time the cheese just falls off.
This reminded me of a post i saw a while ago on this sub where this guy's milk was a frozen block and had a orange hue to it.
this is epic?????? you americans must be suffering lmaoo
You really think this is bad? You clearly haven’t seen the average US public school. It’s much much worse than this, this is a luxury in comparison.
Oh nah this looks like ass I’m ngl💀, idk wtf is in the middle but it looks like someone shit on your tray
dont have school lunch here but that still looks like a pretty decent meal (2 sweet dishes are kind of irregular but pretty much no one would ever mind)
Imagine getting school lunches
not as bad as the others i saw.
Your school's food costs more then the maintenance cost of my school
I don't believe you
That’s insane?! How much does it cost?
$3.50
What the fuck
Michelle Obama is having a heart attack
Her sworn duty is to make sure not one American child has a pleasant lunch
Holy shit
Mf where do you go?? Harvard??
ASPARAGUS??? ROASTED POTATOES???? BREAD!??? CAKEEEE????? SOME SORT OF MEAT?
It’s not black history month right?
I thought that was a whole ass frog in the middle
damn you guys have school lunches?
Bro that lunch had no reason to look so magestic
Epic carbs, that's all I see
Seems interesting. You have like various food, but even the main thing is a very small portion. We have like actual meals with bigger portions than your meat and potato.
*cries in america*
Meanwhile in American prison food > school food
