“You say, ‘Well, there’s salads at the school.’ You know what’s in the salad?”

I really am glad that they made lunches free this year, uh, so it can be accessible for everyone. But what is this talk about, we — that we should be ‘eating healthier?’ Just eating more nutriti- nutritious foods and less caloric, less — with less junk food, when our school is serving us the exact characteristics of unhealthy food? Do you know what we have on our lunch menu? Let’s start. Well, first off we have the hamburgers — and they’re not even that good ’cause they got no vegetables in them! No tomato, no lettuce. It’s literally just a white, white bread — white squishy bread, which is not healthy, and some like oily patty. I don’t, I don’t even know what it’s made out of. Then we have hot dogs, again just white bread and a sausage.

I don’t even know how they feel full from this food, because you’re actually supposed to ‘eat the rainbow,’ that’s how you feel healthy. That’s why salads are so healthy. Not because they’re made out of vegetables, but because it’s a variety of different foods, you’re getting a variety of different nutrients. And then next we have — okay, so let me talk about the salads. You say, “Well, there’s salads at the school.” You know what’s in the salad? Do you know what it is? Okay: lettuce, lettuce, and lettuce. It’s just lettuce and it’s not even — it doesn’t even look like organic lettuce, it’s just dry lettuce. And you know what else? Just to make it — the salad a little bit more colorful so it’s not just lettuce? It’s — and the lettuce doesn’t even taste natural by the way. I’m telling you, I love lettuce, and I would — I, I’ll eat a whole batch of it, but that does not taste like lettuce. 

But you know what they do to make it a little more colorful? They add chicken nuggets. Chicken nuggets! It’s literally — I mean, it depends on what type of chicken nuggets you eat. But considering the fact that the school serves hot dogs and hamburgers, chicken nuggets are probably the same McDonald’s type of food. So, kind of junk food, you know? So why are they putting chicken nuggets, junk food, into the one healthy meal that we have at our school? And fine, don’t eat the chicken nuggets, but then it’s completely just a pi- — like a, like a bowl of — it’s just a bowl. It’s not even a salad.
