I understand discouraging it, as the free school lunches were shit and are shit that is barely edible, but banning it seems wrong. There are some places where there are kids who will eat the disgusting whatever it is they pulled from the dumpster behind the school, but I don't think most people would want to. But also from the quotes you provided, I doubt it's about that...
I was one of the kids that received free lunch at school growing up. No, it wasn’t my favorite food but it was a meal that I would not have had otherwise. It was free lunch or no lunch due to no fault of my own. I preferred to eat something rather than starve.
The solution is to this issue is more money from school free lunch. Starve the beast is a well known political tactic.
I thought that something like 40% of kids are in low income families who can't afford lunch. Is that still the case?
