Who remembers these this school meal

Rach91

Hi sticking with the topic of school who remembers chocolate cake and pink custard. I am trying to remake it exactly the way I use to have it in primary school. What other meals do you guys remember eating at primary school?

  • I've literally just realised that the fact our infant/junior school only had about a dozen different meal options, and you only had to see which it was to know exactly what it was going to be like, was tremendously comforting. There wasn't any choice and you knew exactly what each thing was like.

    The unpredictability of the secondary school canteen meant I couldn't eat there and took in sandwiches or went to the chippy instead.

    There was no choice when I was at school, you ate what was put in front of you or went hungry, if you were lucky, at primary school we had to eat everything.

    We didn't get a choice and the limited different meals cycled round so you get a lot of the same things. Mash in an icecream scoop, lovely lumpy gravy, crumbly liver etc. We also had lunch-monitors who'd send you back to the dining room if you hadn't eaten enough.
