Have you ever wanted to go back in time and eat lunch in your school cafeteria just one last time? Do you miss the strange food combinations and suspect ingredients that went into each serving? If so, the Shark Tank is here to help you relive those lost years, minus the shame and soul crushing peer pressure. With a little help from Schoolmenu.com, we've prepared a week's worth of menu mashup that only the American school system could feel proud of. Get ready to eat like a kid again!
Monday
If you read enough school menus, you'll find they use the word "style" quite a lot. Italian style spaghetti. Mexican style tacos. Man vs Wild style grubs. It's been my experience that anytime something is in the style of something else, that is a clear indication to steer clear. More troubling than that, however, are the tortilla chips w/cheese cup (Ballpark style nachos). Is this an alternative to the spaghetti? A side dish? Not to jump back and forth here, but what other styles of spaghetti are there?
Tuesday
On Tuesday, you can enjoy delicious picadillo with rice. I'm not even going to pretend I know what that is. Don't want that? Have some salad. Or some plantains. Oooh, but what's this? Lettuce, tomato, and shredded cheese for tacos! You could save that in your bookbag for the day they serve meat and shells for tacos!
Wednesday
Pizza and mashed potatoes is how we do it.
Thursday
Well, that's just a Hot Pocket, no matter how else you slice it. They really have the menu writer working overtime, with such offerings as Chilled Pears. Skip the Oven Baked "Fries". Quotation marks are another sign--much like "in the style of"--that you're probably better off sampling the light whole wheat roll.Friday
Friday is diet day. Enjoy your miniburger and your corn cobbette and remember, things could be worse:

We always had pizza and french fries. Or maybe "fries". It was good, though.
Your menu has a lot more variety than our typical school menu. I think everyday they just serve some form of chicken.
