I had so many favorites. I know some people might complain about the food they had but my school put up some good stuff each week.

I'd have to say the bean burritos, the chicken patties, and the pizza every Friday were my favorite.

The burritos came wrapped, so you would just hit up the salad bar and put whatever you wanted on there. I'd load it up with cheese and lettuce, then pour a bunch of salsa on. The salsa was the bomb. I can still remember the taste.

The pizza was so cheesy and sooo good. You always hoped for a big piece and when you got it, you were the king of the lunch table.

School cafeteria food was always shit. I brought food from home most days. I'd sometimes walk to the mall nearby and get something from there.

Are you serious? You guys are THAT young that you actually remember the food they served you in ELEMENTARY school? :Q

The only thing I remember is my 8th grade teacher....this little 5-foot nothing redhaired bombshell who liked to wear her blouse unbuttoned to the navel and bend over my desk while helping me with my learning.

My God...I used to have a boner for hours...to the point of pain.

Ah, so many good ones rubbed out in her honor.

Oh yeah, your cafeteria thread = fail.

I always brought my lunch... Which in retrospect is quite similar to what I take to work right now

Deli Sandwiches which were actually pretty good and cheap.

Double spicy chicken patty sandwich with the veggies was good.

The food was shite for the most part, but I really miss paying $1.50 for a full meal.

I remember this cheap ass cheese pizza they used to serve us in elementary school. It was terrible by my standards today. But damn did I love it back then.

Just thinking about it brings back the taste and makes my mouth water.

Ours was awful. Crust tasted like cardboard, and the sauce had no resemblance to spaghetti sauce whatsoever (some vague orangy-red color, with mystery meaty bits).

Edit: Oops, I got my memories of the pizza mixed in with my memories of the spaghetti. Both were about equally bad...

I don't remember my elementary school food. But my High School had good food. It was cooked by 4-5 lunch ladies who cooked it themselves, knew how to cook, and were really nice (think 50s mother or grandmother). They made the best food. Sometimes it was pre-packaged, but they always made it better with spices or such.

I wouldn't call any of the school food I had from elementary school up to high school good.

College on the other hand...gourmet meals everyday in comparison.
