School dinners - love or hate?

I really hated my school dinners and begged my mum for years to have a packed lunch, thankfully she gave in when I went to secondary school I couldn't have coped with five more years eating lumpy mashed potato served with an ice cream scoop.

Gad don't remind me - I can still picture the bolognese (and the bossy dinner lady trying to make me eat it - horrible old bag!) and as for the liver... a thousand yuks!! Yell

And I'm not even going to mention the spotted dick!

Primary school was much nicer than secondary! Our dinner lady was called Mrs Christmas and she used to make Manchester tart and crumble cadbury's flake over the top! That was the only really nice thing she made!

Always said....absolutely loved our school dinners. We were lucky enough to have a new built school and kitchens and we supplied dinners to about 6 other outside schools, so always plenty of leftovers for us fat (growing lads) bastids......Shepherds pie was amazing...Fresh veg with everything too............wish I was still there really!!!!..........Spent so much of my adult life cooking for other people....it's nice to have something cooked for you??????....Cool~

Mine weren't too bad - just hated the prison tray they were served on.

Sometimes I'm here, sometimes I'm not.

Mine weren't too bad, although for always wanted to take a packed lunch to school- eventually wore mum down to let me take sarnies.

I really liked school dinners in primary school, and high school was more like a fast food restaurant- pizza and chips galore!

They made really nice rice crispie cakes with syrup in at school- they were really yum! I was all for school dinners!

Why!!? Packed lunches were almost never as good as cooked school dinners! I suppose the fashion that goes with having a cool lunch box could override that though :)

In fact I think I still have a Ghostbusters box somewhere...is just too cool for school.

We had a canteen type arrangement in the end, which meant we could pick and chose what we wanted, which invariably meant 'chips' with something. The choice wasn't extensive and the quality was often dubious but certainly not bad. I mostly took packed lunches as I did a lot of sports clubs at lunchtimes so it was difficult to get fed if I didn't have my own supplies.
