She couldn't get over that everything was finger foods that kids could just cram in their mouths without thought. She said she wanted to smack the lunch ladies, lol.<br /><br />Hope things are good in your world!<br />MagsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3113536549524928547.post-41393030941121396642010-04-06T10:28:11.902-04:002010-04-06T10:28:11.902-04:00Most of the arguing about the food with the lunch ...Most of the arguing about the food with the lunch ladies on this show is that they say it takes to much time and it's too much extra work to do fresh food.<br /> It is hard to change people's palates, especially kids. That's been the saddest part. When kids only know frozen nuggets, that's what they want to eat. When Jamie asked a group of kids eating nuggets for lunch what they had for dinner at home the previous night. at least 1/4 of them had nuggets for dinner at home. When urged to try a salad (which looked really good) many of them were gagging and spitting it back out.<br /> When my kids were in kindergarten, we did a kindergarten cookbook project. We asked all of the kids what their favorite meal was, and then asked them to give us the recipe. The results were really cute and funny, but it was obvious that a substantial amount of kids had never seen real cooking at home. They thought that everything came out of a box from the freezer, and popped into the microwave.jennifer c.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07067437333001074575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3113536549524928547.post-35971239499988580152010-04-06T09:38:03.833-04:002010-04-06T09:38:03.833-04:00I haven't watched this new one but I did watch...I haven't watched this new one but I did watch a lot of the one he did in England. He seemed to spend a lot of time arguing with the lunch ladies, who of course aren't the ones who make decisions about what is served. I don't know the answer - my kids didn't buy much because the food was horrible. But they probably would have thought it was horrible-er if it had been Jamie's kind of food LOL.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13685183408513077018noreply@blogger.com
