I'm ok with that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-lunches-the-same-thing#post-1523294 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 14:24:24 +0000 Dandelion 1523294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, even now, in elementary school, it's the same stuff over and over. On Thursday is usually the monthly "theme" food, like an ethnic or other theme (breakfast, etc), but it's pretty much the same stuff. I think it's cause it's tried and true and they know what kids will eat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-lunches-the-same-thing#post-1523270 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 14:19:10 +0000 MarieJ 1523270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is pretty much like that too. Every now and then, I'll see a new meal pop up on the menu. I send LO with lunch most days to make sure she's eating something she likes because most days our menu sucks. Sometimes, she does eat the school lunch, but on average it's once a week, if that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-lunches-the-same-thing#post-1523237 Wed, 26 Mar 2014 14:13:19 +0000 Smurfette 1523237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just started R on the school lunch last week when she moved into a toddler room full time. I was looking at the menu for April before I sign her up and I noticed it is like the same 10 meals over and over again. </p> <p>Is yours like this?</p> <p>Kind of makes me not want to do it again. Yeah it is easier for me, but I can send the same things over and over again and know that she will eat it. Verses, there she hardly eats the fruit and veggies, but I can make sure to send the ones that she does like. </p>
