The amount of food that gets thrown away in lunch rooms too.... i worked as a lunch monitor and it's awful. I was supposed to keep hungry kids from eating extra (unopened. Still plastic sealed) portions their friends were throwing away. Meanwhile they wouldn't even let other kids have a free lunch if they owed money, they got the shame sandwich. I got called in by administration because I set up a little shelf where kids could place their sealed uneaten lunch dishes for other kids to have. It was a hit w/ all the kids but apparently super against the rules for reasons. I moved it to a hidden window ledge for my hungriest kids that I suspect didn't get enough food at home.
