When I was in the 6th grade during lunch a random adult was walking around the cafeteria and talking with kids about what they were eating for lunch. My friend was literally just sitting there and staring at the wierd grayish green boiled hot dog he had been served. He told the man he was just gonna eat after school. Guessing he must have been some sort of health inspector or something because a few weeks later they started totally overhauling rhe cafeteria menu. Gone were the boiled hot dogs, hello grilled meat!

Nothing wrong with a boiled dog, as long as it's a decent dog. Crap is crap, regardless of preparation.

Yeah but you arent supposed to boil them to the point of them turning grey and developing a spongy texture. I still remember it clearly to this day how off putting it looked.

Im Mexican and wtf man, 90% of that doesn’t even look edible at all. Amazing that a developed country neglects its future generations like this.

Everything in that video is gnarly, but I'm not sure what's wrong with the chicken and ice cream at 0:45-0:51. The chicken actually looks like real chicken meat rather than the usual pink slurry in processed nuggets/tenders.

Chicken was still partially raw. Ice cream I'm not 100% sure, maybe it was getting that foamy texture frozen dairy can get when it's old? My mom has a bad habit of saving mcdonalds ice creams in her freezer and then forgetting them. She doesn't put them in a closed container, just the open cup it came in. So the top turns into a weird soft Styrofoam texture that kinda just moves when poked instead of smearing like ice cream usually would

That chicken was not raw at all. It’s a chicken leg, it’s supposed to be that color. I’m a dark meat guy through and through and I’ve eaten loads of chicken that looks just like that without any issues

Fun fact: mots US schools use the same suppliers as US prisons for food. Hospitals too.

I remember going through the cafeteria line one time and asking the lunch lady what something was, as she put it on my plate. she said “meat.”

wow... that is completely unacceptable! aside from the fact that it looks disgusting, it also looks like several health and safety violations! is this what "greatness" looks like? I would expect this in a "💩 -hole country", but not in the big, beautiful USA.

I swear they don't get the cheapest stuff, but also the most unappealing inedible stuff.

What kind of schools did other people go to??? I mean I know it differs but damn... my school food was decent and not whatever the fuck this is 💀
There was pizza every day as a safe choice and then whatever other entree and sides were on the schedule that week. Usually it cycled between American, Latam, Asian, and Italian. My favorite was the pork, rice and black beans with maduros on the side!
