This was an issue when I went to school in the early aughts. The sad part, is that is was generally better than the crap that the school served. I'm not happy about them poisoning our kids, but it wasn't like the school system was doing much better on it's own.

Brands were in our schools even when I was in school. KOTH had an episode in 2007 about it, and even then it had already been going on for years.

That is one sad looking bagel in that picture.

Fuck sake …the memo…i forgot and it’s taped to my keyboard and everything. Do. Not. Criticise. USA.

Wow, I'm surprised a lowly USAian like me would be able to even hurt your feelings like that from down here.
Sincerest apologies your highness.

Why have you got so much of a problem with my comment?

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 2 points 3 days ago

You made a snarky comment and then i made one in return. I apologize if I've offended you.

This makes me sad. Kids are so impressionable and need to learn good habits at that age. Their taste buds will be ruined!

I used to drink 3/4 cans of Coke a day when I started work. I dread to think of the damage done…plus that was up to £10 a week.

I went to a rich high school in California (early 2000s). We had a Pepsi sponsor, and our cafeteria served McDonald's, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell.
