I used to eat school lunches until I found a bug in my food and the food started making me sick. They also don´t fill you up because I always went to class hungry after lunch. They should add more healthy foods. A look at one school’s burger that had twenty-six ingredients and they contained disodium inosinate, a flavor additive that can spike heart rate. It also contained caramel color, which contains sulfites and ammonia.…

Imagine trying to make yourself lunch everyday using only $2.95 This is what schools are forced to do on a daily basis in order to feed thousands of children. Schools have to be able to create a lunch for children that will satisfy their hunger, using only almost $3 per child. How can we expect our children to be getting the proper and nutritional food with such a small budget? Why aren't we doing more to to make sure the kids in our country are eating healthy meals while away from home? How can we make sure the students will react positive to healthier school lunches after being exposed to such unhealthy food for so long? There are so many questions to be asked and many answers to be given. I think we need to focus more attention on this dilemma because these kids are our future, and we need to make sure our future is as healthy physically and mentally as can be.

Another reason cafeterias should start serving healthier food is that junk food does not give kids the energy needed to stay focused in school or the power to participate in sports. “The cafeteria must offer produce, dairy, protein and grain, but three groups constitute a full meal, so many students leave behind the fruits and vegetables” (Martinez, 1). Lunch is right in the middle of the day, if you eat fatty or sugary foods, it could cause you to get tired and not pay attention in your afternoon classes. In addition, junk food caps your energy, which affects your physical activity. You cannot perform your best if you don’t have any energy. Children should be eating more healthy, natural foods.…

School lunches lack healthy nutrients that growing children and teens need. Because, schools lack the proper funding needed to support students with healthy lunches, students have a horrible diet. A lot of people, including myself, believe that if healthy school lunches were provided students at home would make better choices when it came to what snacks they ate between meals. If schools got better funding for healthier lunches it could theoretically save the government more money because the students in turn would have less health problems.…

It is a YouTube sensation. A video made by high school teens titled We Are Hungry is an exaggerated but necessary cry for a change. In the tune of hit song We Are Young the video depicts teens falling asleep during class and slumping to the floor during sports practices. As silly as the video gets at times it boils down to one thing. There needs to be a change. School lunches need to have more calories and bigger portions to support the growing bodies of the children and teens eating them.…
When it comes to school lunches, many parents do not see how bad they can truly be. When enrolling your child or children into a school, the lunches are not the first thing that you look at.

The hallways are stretched to accommodate the classes that thousands of high school students use in order to obtain a proper education. Even within history, these two countries differed in their teachings. During 1647, the United States utilized education to have Puritan Children read the Bible and learn about their Calvinist religion (Historical Timeline of….1), while Japan during the 1600s, focused more on Chinese literature and writing (JICA 1). These two countries also differed historically, in respect to when they demolished the division in catering education towards the wealthy rather than commoners. During the late 16th century the United States catered secondary education to the wealthy part of their society (From There to Here…1),…
Many kids around the world eat different things, epecially in typical school lunches. Around the world students can eat many things down to small biscuits that have enough nutrition for lunch or up to very high fancy foods like shrimp or steak.

Our health should be the most important thing to us because it’s what makes us stay alive. If we weren’t to be healthy, we wouldn’t be able to do anything because we would either be weak or taking medications every single day of our lives. Some schools are making the effort to make sure students have access to healthy and nutritious food. Obviously, if we eat fruits, which obtain sugars, it’s fine since the sugars are natural, but we still need to make sure to be careful on how much we give to our body each day. This is probably the best thing a school can do since it’ll…
