School lunches suck now. It's all healthy stuff. They can't even sell actual potato chips anymore, just the baked ones. My daughter won't eat lunch at school because they are so bad.

I guess those kids just went hungry for the rest of the day.
I'm sure they did. Hence my outrage. If my daughter were to be denied lunch at school - especially if that lunch was then thrown away - I'd be down at the school office, and as my Dad referred to cursing, "talking to God."
The school shouldn't have done that. They should have taken it up with the parents. I'm assuming these are younger kids and not high school kids, so they should have contacted the parents and told them to either pay up or start sending lunches. While they went about it the wrong way, I don't think it's the end of the world. The kids went about four hours without something to eat. It's not like they were starved for days. If the stove in the kitchen broke, or it flooded or something then they all would have went hungry all day too.
I don't get why they took them away, I mean they can't resell them, it's just thrown out then. Why not send a note home with the kid?

Well, explain to me how I'm wrong.
You're the one that jumped in there and blamed right wing businesses.
Explain how you're right.
Besides, it was the school, not any evil right wing business that confiscated the lunches.
As I understood it, the company found that they weren't getting paid for providing those lunches. But I agree - the school deserves to be taken to task for heir heartlessness, too.
Red states (shakes head derisively).
I read it again and didn't see anything about any company. It was a school employee who made that call, assuming that the child nutrition department is a school function.
Quote:
Jason Olsen, a Salt Lake City District spokesman, said the district’s child-nutrition department became aware that Uintah had a large number of students who owed money for lunches.
As a result, the child-nutrition manager visited the school and decided to withhold lunches to deal with the issue, he said.
But cafeteria workers weren’t able to see which children owed money until they had already received lunches, Olsen explained.
The workers then took those lunches from the students and threw them away, he said, because once food is served to one student it can’t be served to another.

Okay, I misread the article. I'm big enough to admit my f*ck up.

Hey, all is not lost. You can still savagely attack all those mean spirited Utah conservatives and self-righteous Mormons.
