Cheap foods are fun foods, as long as you're not allergic to rodents

Sure, this is an elementary school in an upper-middle class location. 
Does that mean better resources? 
Not when a school can save a few bucks buying cheaper foods, without anyone the wiser.
 In one of the few years I went here, we had an on-going contest to see who got the coolest animal parts in our hotdogs, on the rare days we got such a special treat.
Unfortunately for me, I never got more than vertebrae, but my friend found a rat skull - we all agreed that she won the game, hands down.
You may think of it as disgusting and unsanitary - "how can they feed this to our children?"
Honestly, the hotdogs were delicious to us all the same.

Just make sure to chew carefully, take out your bone-prizes, and finish your food happily - it's all you're gonna get.
