School lunches are meals provided to students during the school day, typically served in a cafeteria. These lunches are designed to meet nutritional guidelines and often include a variety of food groups, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, proteins, and dairy. Many schools offer both hot and cold meal options, and some may accommodate dietary restrictions or preferences. In many countries, school lunches are subsidized by the government to ensure that all students have access to healthy food. Programs like the National School Lunch Program in the United States aim to reduce food insecurity and promote better eating habits among children.
