School Lunches
Introduction
School lunches are terrible this year for Avon High School students. I think that we as teenagers, especially as high school seniors, are old enough to make our own decisions on what we eat and what we put into our bodies. I think it is ridicules all of the low fat and whole wheat food they are feeding us. The food at our school is not making us eat healthy, the food at our school is making us eat more.
Trays and Forks
At the start of the lunch there are forks, spoons and trays. Sometimes the trays are wet and hot. I think that is gross and when the trays are like that I usually do not even get a tray. I think also that the forks are a waste of plastic because not everyone gets a food that needs a fork.
Beverages
Then you come to the beverages part of the line. The drink choices are actually not that bad. I just do not like that the milk is low fat and not a lot of choice is in the milk. The "Bai" drink is an antioxidant drink and I think that is way to far for high school students. For the chip selection of the lunch line is limited.
Chip Selection
For the chip selection of the lunch line is limited. Everything in the lunch line is low fat. Or everything is 65% less fat. I think that high school kids should not be having low fat and less fat for lunch. We will just eat what we want when we get home anyways so what is the point on trying to get us to eat healthier.
Pizza
The pizza that they offer to students is disgusting. It is usually really old and crusty. The outer edges of the pizzas are hard and difficult to bite into. The pizzas are not even healthy. They are gross and should not even be an option for our school lunches. These pizzas make me not even want to eat the school lunches.
Fruits
The fruit part of the lunch is actually one of the only things I eat. I enjoy fruit a lot. But, usually the bananas are still green and not ripe enough to eat yet. So I do not end up getting the bananas. Also the oranges are still too hard, or not ripe enough to eat yet as well.
Salad Dressing
The salad dressing at our school is nasty. All of the dressing is low fat or lite. The choices are limited and usually run out. We are only aloud one dressing for a whole salad. If we decide that we would like more we are required to pay extra money for another dressing for our salad.
Salads
The salads in the lunch line are gross. They usually have beans and tomatoes in them which some people do not even like. I think that we should have a salad bar to get our own choice on what toppings we would like. I think a salad bar would be a nice compromise.
Beans
The beans in the lunch line are actually very unappetizing. They were kind of cold and way too mushy. The beans were watered down and gross. We should have food that is actually edible.
Conclusion
When it comes to Avon High School lunches they are nasty. Nobody finds them appetizing and they are just gross. High school kids are old enough to make their own decisions on what they eat and what they put into their own bodies. The food at our school is not making us eat healthy, the food at our school is making us eat more.
