Schools can’t get food for lunches. Almost impossible to get chicken.

Schools can’t buy it at the same places we do. They must buy from certain distributors, and those distributors are choosing to sell to higher profit customers (civilian grocery stores, restaurants). Which makes sense.

Guaranteed that your local district is having a hard time. Ask someone who works in the school lunch program.

"...aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one." - Paul to the church in Thessalonica.
