Some students don’t like school lunch
September 25, 2018
Some students don’t enjoy school lunches. Everything from the taste of the food to how crowded it is to how students act, it can be challenging.
People say that students are tossing out their lunches a lot more these days because the healthier they get, the more kids don’t want to eat their lunch. Students throw away the vegetables,fruit, and anything else that doesn’t look appealing to them.
Most of the students prefer to eat from the snack bar since the snack bar has more food that taste better and is more appealing than the regular lunch line. Some students usually don’t eat lunch because they like to spend their time at lunch talking to their friends.
Since students don’t have a break time, they have cougar time which is a study hall so students don’t really get to talk, so they use lunch as that time to talk instead of eat.
Aliana Graham an 8th grader said she doesn’t enjoy lunch. “I’m constantly debating with my peers if we’re being fed prison food,” she said, adding that she chooses to eat from the snack bar and not the hot lunch line anymore.
Graham said that she doesn’t mean to disrespect the lunch ladies but the food from the hot lunch line is discolored and the food is like rubbery, but she does like the nachos the lunch line provides sometimes.
Trevor Thomas an 8th grader states that “the food here at Dobie is weird, especially the applesauce and the apples.” Trevor isn’t that into apples either way. He usually buys lunch from the snack bar line and sometimes the lunch line. The food he eats from the lunch line that seems appealing to him is the Cowboy Stew.
Again this is not to disrespect the lunch staff, but to take this into consideration because students are wasting more and more food everyday and it’s a waste of food.
Now lets talk about the lunch lines. Since there are a lot of students at Dobie Jr. high the lines tend to get super long, even though our lunches are divided into 3, A lunch, B lunch & C lunch, there are issues with students cutting in line, but recently Mr. House has been more alert about it and is taking care of it. But instead of giving Mr.House a hard time lets just cooperate and stop cutting in line because its not fair to your peers behind you and its disrespecting Mr. House if he tells you multiple time to stop cutting in line.

At my school CHS Cumberland high school I honestly think that the fruit and veggies are bad because they are not organic and I think alot of people can agree. The food can suck not because they are healthy because they are not made right and most of what they survive is actually unhealthy. Another thing is that they force us to take a fruit and if they didnt do that people wouldn’t throw it away. My school seems like I think maybe most of us dont mind being healthy because we are a group of people that it healthy and athletic which is what I see. So I dont think what u are saying is completely accurate for all schools. Just saying. God bless you.
At my school, Sioux Center Middle School, our food isn’t that good either. We get served small portions and there has been a couple times where the fruit was expired and mushy. Plus, it’s a normal thing to accidentally get expired milk. It’s so gross! Sour and cold! I wish we could change our milk to where it was before, because before, the most it would do is turn frozen, but it tasted fine. Not to mention, 5th, 6th, and 7th graders get the high schools leftovers. I’ve seen the carts from the high school with food go down to the middle school. I’m glad we have a snack bar, but I hate having to pay extra for it just because I’m hungry and want something that’s actually tasty to eat. Thank you for making this. Have a great day to anyone reading this. =)
