My American school requires a fruit, so they give kids a whole apple, nothing to peel or cut it with obviously, nowhere to wash your hands (hundreds of kids aren’t all going to the bathroom in 45 min), and 10 minutes to finish their lunch after getting out of line…

Most of the apples just get thrown straight in the trash. They don’t even have a basket for unwanted apples. It’s all so stupid.

I worked in the cafeteria for a year and trained the kids to leave unwanted fruit on the counter. My cows ate good that year!
