191 Photos That Show Just How Differently Schools Feed Their Students Around The World
Kids can form better eating habits when schools provide them with healthy food, but unfortunately, not all of these establishments are capable of doing so.
There's a notion that students from the US or the UK usually walk to their cafeteria in disdain while their Asian peers (especially, South Koreans) are getting served mouth-wateringly fresh and varied meals.
But is this always the case?
To show you that not everything is black and white, we at Bored Panda put together a list of photos that reveal what schools from all over the world put on their plates. Bon appetit! (Or not.)
