Oh for sure. But I agree; let's get kids fed, even if it isn't the best. Then we can work on getting more nutritious, healthier foods. I remember having chicken tenders and a bottle of pop seemingly everyday in high school. Or those rectangular pizzas, ugh. I don't know how I'm alive today, haha.
I bet these companies could provide better food. But I imagine, as always, it's a matter of cost. Of what school districts and families can afford. I have a hard time seeing the state or some government getting involved and providing foodservices directly. But that'd be interesting to at least try. I wonder if there are any school districts where the school or district themselves manage foodservice entirely themselves. If so, I wonder if it's better, worse, or about the same as the average.
