We are enjoying the hell out of having the kids here.
The darned meals they would bring out would be less nutritious and wholesome than what we cook all day..... by a long ways!
We sure dont need the food.......our food is better, and then there is the social distancing aspect.............hard to see a upside!
Aside from the fact that Young Daniel was gonna get to try out his new John Wayne lunch box............

I wouldn't take it unless I really need it. Those people thoughts are in the right places, however i doubt they practiced social distancing when they made it. Thats what the old lady and I are discussing right now. Ya gotta ask your mom?

i think this is part of a federal mandate, feedin the chillen, and local school districts don't have much control. I do know it started long before the virus. where a lot of the minorities live in phoenix, south phoenix, they have been delivering meals to the kiddo's for years a large percentage of which parents are illegal. great society.

news around here had one of them deals on the other day. a line of $40k SUV's in line for box lunches. people can't be expected to take care of their kids these days so somebody has to feed them. It works like this^^^. We may not have the money in govt to pay for cops and jailers but that is discretionary. We can cut the military. We can cut the 2A. Welfare, working stupid slaves like us gotta pay. Slavery never went away, it just went from the blacks and on to whitney's backs.

My wife is a school lunch lady and volunteered to serve lunches. When school was open she saw kids that the only food they got was at school and they really appreciated it. Don't know the backstory on them but seems odd that parents couldn't provide for the kids.
Anyway, she heads to the school mid-morning and helps make/pack a breakfast & lunch, puts in a bag, and loads coolers in her car. She has two locations where she sets up with 1-2 other ladies and kids get their meals. Protocol is only one person at a time and they have to use hand sanitizer before getting lunch. So far, no problem. She wheres a mask and gloves too.
She has noted that there are quite a few that don't seem to really need the food but it's posted everywhere about it and there aren't any recordkeeping so it's kinda a free-for-all. Understandable if you really need it but if not it's BS.

The stigma some of you are trying to apply to this school meal deal is completely unfounded.
Montana is doing this on my property tax dollars, the schools get 40% of those tax dollars. The schools are closed, their expenses have plummeted to record lows. I seriously doubt they intend on mailing me a partial refund of my tax dollars they will not be needing due to this.
They are employing cafeteria staff that would be at home on their azzes if it wasn't for this program. Look at it as if you grabbing a meal is helping to employ people..
No one should feel bad for whatever the reason may be that they choose to get these meals...
It's far from anything that could even be faintly described as a charity hand out...

My dogs won’t even eat a Honey Crisp or Gala apple
They would shun me if I delivered one of those 3/4scale ‘school lunch apples’
I mean they’ll play ball with it, good for soft-mouth drills.
Been one on the porch since Christmas. And it was one of the Harry&David apples too. But they’ll chew my damn Jimmy buffet flip flops, sombitches

It's federally funded and a cash cow for the schools.

There is some kind of food system for Senior citizens too. Neighbor gave the wife a few meals of it, (frozen) and it was tasteless crap. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

Thats why we want to opt out.
The kids are eating WAY better at home here.
Real meat...real cheese...loads of veggies and fruits.
Probably about .0001 preservatives and way less sugar and salt too.
School lunches are basically bulk TV dinners. Lotta bullshit in there.

Just because you're ok with it doesn't make it right. Just because you've already paid your property taxes doesn't mean the schools/govt might as well spend it. Of course they don't intend on mailing you a refund. That doesn't mean they shouldn't. If I come in under budget on a project at my job, that doesn't mean I should go spend that money on something else.

It isn't really "something else", they been doing it all along. They are just going to the kids instead of the kids showing up in school.
I'm just glad they are employing folks and feeding people on a dime I've already spent.

Actually its closer to 75 percent subsidized meals at our schools.
We is poor and need some food.
