Trying 3 American School Lunches

I'm making three different American school lunches to see which generation of children had it best. First, let's start with my grandpa's school lunch. He's 89 years old, which means he started school in the early 1940s during World War II. My grandpa would eat a sandwich with one slice of bologna and some mustard on white bread.

His side would be carrots and celery, and he would drink some milk. Grandpa's lunch wasn't too bad considering this was during wartimes, so I'll give him a 6 out of 10. Next up is my mom's school lunch. She started school in the 1970s and apparently she used to just eat a chocolate chip cookie and a carton of milk. That was the whole lunch. Can you tell she picked out her own lunches? It is delicious, but this is not a lunch. 1 out of 10. Next up is my elementary school lunch. I started school in the early 2000s, which was the golden age of American school lunches because we would get chicken tenders, French toast sticks, tater tots, potato chips, and soda. Look at how brown this lunch is.

No wonder we all have digestive issues now. No wonder we all have digestive issues now. I liked it though, so eight out of 10.
