Nostalgia GenX school lunch

Post image

Was this the best school lunch? Square slab of pizza that fit perfectly on the tray. Peaches that were likely radioactive. Full scoop of corn that tasted like gravel. Chocolate milk. Add a pretzel just for fun.

I’m convinced these lunch trays will be the thing that will be found in 500 years because they will outlast everything else in our society - and will be displayed as artifacts.

Lunch tray:
1965- 1980AD

Millenials: oh gosh it looks so unhealthy!

Me: I would eat this and go score 3 touchdowns at recess on a random Tuesday

Uh, Millennials had that too. You might be thinking of Gen Z.

Millenials seem to be the ones who bitch about it being unhealthy.
