I work as a HealthCorps Coordinator in Manhattan. The school building houses five schools and there are not enough lunch periods for students from my two schools to go to the cafeteria. In theory an adult can accompany students to the cafeteria, but it is crowded with students from other schools and fights between schools are not uncommon. Consequently we are sent trays of food each day to eat in classrooms. We get about 75 lunches a day plus plenty of milk and chocolate milk(sometimes multiple varieties of each). If the students like the food on a given day, it will disappear very quickly and some students may be left hungry. If they don't like the food, most of it gets thrown away.
These are my observations, not a 100% accurate account of what happens with the lunch food.
