Even though our school encourages us to eat a balanced meal, our school lunch is not actually that good for us. Our school is changing a lot of our main dishes into whole wheat or whole grain alternatives, such as whole grain macaroni and cheese and hamburgers with whole wheat buns. Even though part of it is healthy, not all of the ingredients are good for you, and they do not taste as good. For example, once I had a whole wheat burrito that came in a package, and the ingredients label said it had artificial preservatives! Our school lunches are not always as healthy as they appear to be.
When you say fruit, you usually think of an apple or a banana, but our school often serves frozen, chopped-up fruit with a lot of sugar water. Their other fruits usually come in slices in packages. Also, some yard duties at my school say that we can only have either one serving of a fruit or vegetable. As you can see, school lunches are not always that healthy.
