Concerned, she decided to review her son’s school menu and could not believe her eyes.
In her words: “…I decided to review the school’s monthly lunch menu and couldn’t believe the delicious selection of food he had to choose from. “Who would choose home made rice and stew over all these? I don’t cook all these at home and I’m a little jealous.”
A look at the her son’s school menu showed the meal types as chicken MCSchool, cheeseburgers, French fries, milk chocolate FF Hood and many more were slated for Monday.
There were other ‘sophisticated’ meal types for the remaining days of the week.
Son’s school menu better than mom’s
The Nigerian mum said it was, however, painful as she painstakingly made the meals.
“It’s painful. Especially when I wake up at 6:30 am to do all that,” she tweeted in the comment section.
Netizens were amazed at the quality of food being served at the school and recounted on their sub standard meals in their time.
@UkomahM said: “Chai… I went to school with coaster biscuit. The only complementary service was tap water which you had to drink with your hand.”
@MagnifisentChic said: “I am sure my rice and stew will be returned back to me especially as I mistakenly put fork instead of spoon….perfect excuse for why they didn’t eat my Nigerian Home Made Meal made with love….darn!”
@mzkalu said: “Nne, it’s all about packaging o. In theory, all you need is adding a bit of colouring and creativity to attract the kids. NO GENERIC lunch boxes. A little bit of this and a little bit of that.”
@novieverest said: “Imagine going through this to package food only to learn that your effort wasn’t up to standards.”
