No way as people are a pain in the backside. Can you imagine the complaints from certain parents and families? Oh, you can't serve meat, WE are vegetarian/vegan so you can't serve it to anybody. (or they are going meat free under the delusion that it is better for the planet so EVERYONE has to be meat free) Yo, your soy beans use more resources than feeding cows etc. Oh, we are gluten free, so make sure everything on the menu is gluten free. Oh we have a lacose issue so nobody can have milk or dairy. Oh, we have allergies so you can't serve anything containing nuts, eggs, dairy, fish or ingredient number xxx. It also would have to be kosher or halal or there would be complaints. This is too difficult to implement without offending everybody. Why should people that can eat everything miss out because of the loud minority that wants to ban everything for everybody? This is unfair to everyone. This is also why kids are told NOT to share their lunch boxes/meals with other kids due to allergens, customs, health reasons or beliefs. It would never occur to any of these people to elect NOT to eat a free meal because they don't agree with what is being served as they would rather have these "offensive" items banned for whatever warped reason they have in mind under the guise of one of the above "special needs" or "inclusivity". Question: how is it inclusive if you have eliminated so many items? ROFLEdited 06-Dec-23 00:39am

Sure why not ,it would actually help a lot of families that have to send their children to school with less than healthy options for lunch and leave the kids to be judged or left hungry with no breakfast . Obesity is only one part of the equation here. Even a free lunch once a week would help and definitely fresh fruit should be available at recess or when they arrive , Some parents are really struggling silently.

Yes, but more for public schools than private. A lot of kids do not eat a healthy breakfast or lunch at home.
