A friend of mine had 3 Bologna and Cheese Sandwiches and chips, everyday, for the four years we were in High School. My mother being Irish had no Idea what food was let me make my own.
I went 12 years to Catholic schools and NEVER had access to a cafeteria. One of my great treats was opening up my Soupy Sales lunch box and finding a Deviled Ham sandwich and a twinkie could buy our chocloate milk from a vendor.
