It's not just your memory - the lunches we got at school were prepared there, that day. nothing pre-packaged or microwaved.
We had fresh hot rolls they made daily, things like homemade vegetable beef soup, spaghetti & meatballs, salsbury steak, desserts.
I have been to school & eaten lunch with my children & I'm appalled at what they get served. Why do they hire so many folks to work in the cafeteria? because nothing is "cooked" anymore. It's all junk food.
I miss the good old days!! lol

I lived in a small Scottish town and the school dinner ladies all knew us. Monday was a favourite as we had scotch broth and homemade cheese biscuits. We had all the usual puddings - lovely, especially sponge and custard. Later, I worked with the school dental service and the best school dinner I had ever.... was at Achiltibuie (home of the world know Summer Isles Hotel) - back of beyond only reached by 19 miles of single track road from Ullapool. Anyway, the cook served mince, mashed tatties and grated carrot - served it outside and the children sang and played guitars - honestly it was incredible. I doubt if the Summer Isles Hotel could put on a banquet like this.

I used to love school dinners. Always hot and prepared on the day. Chicken, roast dinners, pork chops. And a wonderful dessert, apple pies, rhubarb. Who's idea was it to take it out of the schools. Now they are begging to have them back.

I did, when I was growing up in the 1940s food was rationed and school dinners were the best meal most children got

My favourite was Cheese Pinwheel, Spaghetti hoops and Chips followed by Jam Shortcake and custard. Delicious.
