Notice the sign in panel two? Now go back a few days and take a look at the burger, bag of chips and milk that this school considers a nutritional meal. On the up side, at least the kids will eat it.
Yeah, but it’s been discovered whatever it is that they are serving as healthy, is being dumped in the trash rather than being eaten. Besides, I see nothing wrong with a burger, chips and milk. It would be the same as what they probably get at home. The burger is on a bun, probably with lettuce and tomato. I find nothing wrong with that. Most of the time, when I went to school, I brought my lunch. Cheaper that way.
Wasn’t it during the Reagan administration that Ketchup was declared a vegetable. There is a tendency to play fast and loose with the definition of “nutritional” and the public resistance to programs to improve school food – symbolized by the way Jamie Oliver’s TV programs on the subject were treated both in Britain and the United States) – seems to defend the status quo.

Just noticed, in Sunday’s comic, the little skunk has a clothespin on his nose.

If he’s serious about the girl, eat it and keep quiet.

@JanCinLV — the sign doesn’t say “nutritious”; it says “nutritional”. In other words, their meals contain food.
