You’re paying for the pre-portioned servings and the plastic containers. I mean, I get it to an extent - it’s quite a bit of work to pack a child’s lunch nearly every morning on top of all the other stuff to get ready with a child. I’d love to have the extra 10-15 minutes back, too, but putting the work in saves money and plastic waste, and also avoids stuff like this (as far as I can control at least).
Free decent breakfasts, lunches and even dinner as part of an extended school day could be such a help for so many parents. So much household labor is required to keep this fucking nightmare on track to killing us all.
