I'm sorry about not providing commentary.
I'm actually against food shaming. The blame has to be put on the parents, but OTOH nothing is free. It cost money to employ lunch workers. It cost money for supllies.
Lunch shaming” is the term often used for efforts to hold schoolchildren publicly accountable for unpaid lunch bills. A 2014 report by the Department of Agriculture found that about 45 percent of school districts withheld a hot meal and instead provided a cold sandwich to such students. Cafeteria workers have thrown away food from trays of students whose accounts were overdue, or provided less desirable alternatives.
