Charismatic Cafeteria Staff Gives Me
the Scoop on School Lunches. By: David Wilson I got the opportunity to talk to the
energetic and fun staff behind THE LUNCH COUNTER. Claudia and mickey, they informed
about all the changes to the lunch system. The new company Chartswell promises and
delivers huge changes in the lunch room.From the processed foods of last year,
to the fresh cut veggies and homemade entrées this year they’ve made impressive
and great changes.
Some of the changes to the new lunch menu are less junk food, snacks and more freshly cut veggies. Another big change that kids seem to love is the pizza line with fresh, good for you pizza. The only downside to the new lunch
policy, at the end of the PRODUCTS THAT aREN'T bought are thrown away instead
of donated or saved.
A
couple of innovative ideas the company might try in the future is taste test new
lunch items with five lucky kids. Another idea they’re thinking of is a
self-serve buffet style lunch room, but that would probably be years down the
road. With all these new changes make sure to
let the staff know how much you love the new cafeteria foods.
Special shout out to Claudia for her
last year here after 30 years. We’ll miss you!
