whenever the main source of protein is deep fried soon dae, i just want to throw a temper tantrum and stomp my feet. ugh. what a waste of a lunch.

what did you have today at your school?

Doesn't your school publish the menu a month in advance? Check it out and plan ahead for the days you don't like what they're going to serve.

Don't know about your school, but the teachers at my school are paying only for the meals they eat at the school's cafeteria. I never eat at the school cafeteria (I'm vegetarian) so I pay nothing.

My HS is pay-for-what-you-eat too.......as was my last HS.......I thought it was the norm. The cafeteria manageress just puts out a print of the staff list at the end of the buffet line so we can check against our names. That get collated each month then sent to the school accountant who deducts from our pay.


I thought all schools did this. It's pretty much a scam to charge you for everyday if you don't eat everyday.

The last three days at my school:

Ginger BBQ pork chop
Black rice
Three kinds of kimchi
Miso with udon

Fried fish (with no bones!)
Fried rice
Salad
Kimchi

Sweet and sour chicken
Black rice
Samgyetang
More kimchi

Pretty awesome stuff, and it's free. That said, they recently switched suppliers, and our old lunches were inedible (though still free).

Fish at my school is hit or miss. Usually its either too dry (and that is edible) or its red marinated to hell which makes me dry heave after a whiff irritates my delicate nasal passages.

northway, your lunches sound badass. i had battered boneless fish with a ginger sauce yesterday and that was awesome.

but sometimes they'll serve fish with about a million bones in them and takes you forever to get to the meat. ugh to that too.
