Sorry, I don’t buy it. When I was in middle school, we had the same problem — lunch one year was served at 10:20 a.m. On the other hand, when I got to high school, I just skipped lunch entirely and ate when I got home, after 3:00. Guess when I was more likely to overeat.
Without debating the merits of the timing problem and all, I immediately notice the presence of vending machines — we didn’t have ’em. So what did we poor first-lunch kids eat? Exactly what the cafeteria served, or else exactly what Mom sent from home.
Where are the grown-ups in this picture? The parents, or those in loco parentis?
