Cafeteria food

Scene 1 The loud hum of children 's voices fills my ears as I travel into the lunchroom. “Hey, girl, what’s up?” my friend, Karma, enthusiastically belches from our normal lunch table. I giggle in response, “Nothin much, girly. Hey you goin’ to Dorothy 's house tonight?”. Karma shakes her head, “Nah, girl! I’m just gonna take a nap when I get home. I’m beat today.” After leaving lunch, the rest of the day flies by. A bit after I arrive home, I decide to go for a stroll in my neighborhood. When

Everyone knew. Even though they tried to hide the reality, I figured it out. Flora, or Funky Flora, is what people call me at school. My parents were journalists who stay cooped up in their offices transcribing a premium book about Mount Fiji. Consistently, I keep thinking about my only best friend who was a talented girl, named Stella, who unfortunately passed away a few weeks back. I know that you are thinking of a car accident or a common accident that happens everyday. Well, let me give you a

Destiny Mendoza Kaitlyn Langley Priscilla Fernandez AP Environmental Science Creating a Sustainable Food Program For Hughson High School If campuses over forty-two years old are not considered a “green campus,” then what does that make Hughson High School at one hundred and four years old? For the three years that we have been at Hughson High School, we have witnessed resources from the school’s cafeteria being wasted and pollution increasing daily. Hughson High School has the opportunity to become a

There are many devastating food issues in society; the same is true on college campuses. Problems such as food waste, nutrition problems, and affordability are only a few of the troubles intertwined with food. A college campus is much like a small city, it’s residents, the students produce a lot of food waste like anyone else, and if the university does not actively seek to combat the problem of food waste, it will run ramped. Every day, on the campus of Stetson University, roughly 3,000 students

“Food, in the end, in our own tradition, is something holy. It 's not about nutrients and calories. It 's about sharing. It 's about honesty. It 's about identity (Louise Fresco).” Most humans, including myself, enjoy eating good food. When food is less than satisfactory and people have to eat that same food on a regular basis, they tend to get sick of it. That is the problem I am currently facing in my second semester at MNU. The food was decent for a while, but the dining program lacks variety

Congress, as a measure of national security, to safeguard the health and well-being of the Nation’s children and to encourage the domestic consumption of nutritious agricultural commodities and other food, by assisting the States, through grants-in aid and other means, in providing an adequate supply of food and other facilities for the establishment, maintenance, operation and expansion of nonprofit school lunch programs” (Avey, 2015). Unfortunately, the school lunch program made little progress after

for not enough food. School lunches should be gone and we should get to go home for lunch or get to go to some restaurants with are friends. Most people want to go home for lunch because the schools food taste weird. When people eat the schools food they're afraid of the fact that the food has no color and the food is not cooked all the way sometimes. Also the food has no good feel or taste in it because they are not allowed to put seasoning in the food at school. The schools food is also boiled

The harsh stereotypes of cafeteria food and negative connotations of assumedly horrible lunch ladies are as old and traditional as the American school system itself. Interestingly, the concept of the school lunch is one that has been revolutionized over and over to fit the needs of American youth. The overarching program that oversees and occasionally refurbishes the American schooltime meal is the National School Lunch Program, put on through the United States Department of Agriculture. In 2012

it is fun starting a new way of life. Life without the constant objections from your parents and annoyance from your little sibling is one of the many advantages you gain from college. Cancelled classes, late night parties and deleterious amounts of food make college enjoyable; however, this can lead to weight gain. “Freshman 15” is not a myth and although you may not be unfortunate enough to gain 15 pounds, you might gain some weight. To avoid gaining weight, freshmen should eat healthy, avoid alcohol

shows steady increase in food waste throughout the globe. One largely contributing factor is food waste produced from the public schools. The amount of food wasted in schools, according to the USDA, has ranged between 10-37% of calories served (Buzby, J., Guthrie, J., 2002). It is difficult to compare public-school waste to global amounts due to the scarcity of specific data -- this would depend on region, economic status and additional factors associated with how and why food is wasted in schools.
