School food can be fulfilling. Case in point: when I was in Jr. High, we had a sandwich bar. I haven't had a sandwich that good since. It was the bread; it was the fact that the tomatoes were always fresh and firm; the lettuce, always shredded. And I would get ranch dressing on the side and dip my sandwich. Sidebar: ever notice how ranch dressing at restaurants always tastes better than ranch dressing in a bottle from the grocery store? Why can't they just bottle the stuff you get at a restaurant?
I am currently trying to get a waiver from the meal plan req when I go back to college. The last time I ate the food there on a regular basis I was on more medication than I had been before or since for an intestinal problem.
And I wish that there was even a sandwich bar, but it is all heat lamp foos, and the salad bars I remember were all the stalky parts of the lettuce and the dressing that must have been the kraft rejects. I mean I was really sick, and the food was horrible.
