>I’m the pastor of this church. I issued an apology (not for actually posting the signs<

In other words you don’t apologize for posting the signs.

School rolls are the best things ever!

Does anyone remember the chili from school in Harrisonburg? And the bread used to taste home baked. I always thought the lunches were good! But that was back in the day…

I don’t miss the taste of school food, but I do miss the bargain! I buy school lunches when I volunteer and am usually satisfied with what I get for the money.

Those are all good suggestions Jeremy. I love Kurdish and French food. I was at a family owned Cuban Bistro in North Carolina a couple weeks ago and I was so impressed with the food. I have never actually asked to speak with the chef at a restaurant before, but I did that night. Unbelievable food.

Meh, we already have sushi places. How about a Brazilian steakhouse, North African couscous, a French bistro, a Mongolian grill, Iranian kebobs, or something from specific Latin American cuisines other than Mexican? With so many Russian and Kurdish immigrants in the area, I’m surprised we don’t have their national favorites available locally either.

Well my kids go to Waterman now, and the food is better than a fast food restaurant and certainly more healthy. I saw one meal in those pictures (the cheese breadsticks) that actually is served there, but it looks a lot better in person. Keister will be getting local foods every week (I think) this year. I’m not sure why this is only happening at Keister, but I hope it spreads throughout the schools.

I go through the menu at the beginning of every month and let my kids pick which days that want to bring lunch and which days they want to buy. My oldest, who will be in his third year of school food, wants to buy almost every day. So, it must not be too gross.

Maybe they could catch their sushi from the beautiful Black’s Run which runs beneath them. lol ;)

I agree with ‘justin’ (unless he was being sarcastic). I had the benefit of going to Waterman Elementary some years ago (wow, like 20+) and their lunches were usually very good. That was the days of homemade rolls at almost every lunch. We were allowed Chocolate Milk only on Thursdays. All through my schooling, city lunches were certainly as good as a fast food joint. I didn’t really care for the school pizzas (something about a pizza slice that is rectangular being cut from a big pizza the shape of a sheet pan always got me). It would be nice for them to return to more fresh local products and more homemade meals though.

Bleck! Some of those may taste ok, but they sure don’t look very good.

I miss school lunches. Some of that food was really good. You can ice-cream-scoop my mashed potatoes any day of the week.
