School lunch: What's in YOUR lunch? (PHOTOS)

by Loreal Lynch | September 22, 2011



Healthy cafeteria food?

While healthy cafeteria food may sound like an oxymoron, school cafeterias are actually serving up well-rounded, healthy meals these days. In fact, according to the infographic "Brown Bags vs. Mystery Meat" published on our partner site, OnlineSchools.com, school cafeterias must adhere to a set of strict nutritional standards, making for some well-rounded, healthy meals. Yet packed lunches continue to be filled with chips, sweets and sugary drinks.

We wanted to get reader thoughts on the issue. Do you eat healthier lunches from the cafeteria, or when you pack your own lunch? Tweet a picture of your lunch to @SchoolsEDU with the hashtag #whatsinmylunch so we can find out! Once we collect several pictures, we will put a slideshow together showcasing your lovely lunches.
