10 Pictures Of What School Lunches Look Like Around The World

In America, we can tend to be a little bit self-centered. We complain about our school lunches – whether they’re too healthy or not healthy enough – and even deny them sometimes to kids who really need them.

We probably don’t think much about what lunches are like other places, though, but sometimes comparisons can be useful. If you’re curious now, here are 10 pictures from around the world that students took of their plates.

10. I’m not 100% sure what I’m looking at.
