Maybe I'm just an old grouch, but back when I went to school, my mother would pack me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to take to school each morning and I'd eat it at my desk when teacher said it was time for lunch. If the kid next to me had a bologna and cheese sandwich, maybe I'd swap with him if I was tired of peanut butter and jelly.

If we wanted a "hot lunch", we'd put our sandwiches on the windowsill if it was a sunny day.

Yup. The idea that some kids “can’t afford” lunch is a complete joke. Inability to pay for your child’s lunch is a choice.
