Are school lunches heart healthy- take my poll

Do you think that school lunches are healthy? I remember growing up- pizza, sloppy joe, burger and fries… Now there is baked chicken, spaghetti and meat sauce, tuna on wheat, peanut butter celery and a salad and veggie on every tray. Much better then what I remember. Do you think school lunches are heart healthy?

When my eldest started school I packed her lunch out of fear of ‘what the heck would she get on a school lunch tray’? Now with my older two at school- they buy lunch about 50% of the time. To be totally honest, I think the lunches are priced way to high at over $3 a lunch but I go with it. My kids always, and I mean always, get the tuna on wheat with celery and carrot sticks and milk or peanut butter with sunflowers on bread with fruit and a salad- yes they are boring eaters like me.
