Did your public schools serve Mystery Meats in the school lunches?

Some school children in Nebraska got sick recently in Nebraska after eating the chili they were served in their school lunches. It was discovered that the chili had been prepared with kangaroo meat, which the school said was purchased from their vendor company "Sysco"....now I'm wondering how much cheaper kangaroo meat is than beef and why they didn't want to come out and tell students that was what was in it before they served it. And what all other meats have been substituted in meals.

The local schools here are so health conscious omg and they are making the food menu even healthier soon, if that’s at all possible 😂 I don’t think kids need a lot of fat free foods bc they burn it off easily at their age from their energy but extra banana 🍌 other fruits 🍇 won’t harm I guess. I bet they will be super hungry when they get home tho 🙄 lol

@SW-User We need fats to digest the vitamins and help build hormones etc. Fruit is always better than sweets. Sugar and corn syrup and processed items for the most part should be eliminated. Some of the stuff they put on the menus at local schools is pure junk food.

It’s been known to be bad hasn’t it ? Do you remember when Jamie Oliver wanted to change the school bad menus ? That seemed to make some positive changes but it kinda fizzled out after a while 🌭 @cherokeepatti
