If you’re anything like me, you probably forget to grab your lunchbox off the kitchen counter almost everyday, forcing you to wait in the DisneyLand-length lunch lines of the cafeteria. Or perhaps you’re nothing like me, and you only forget your lunch every blue moon. That still means that, at least once in your high school career, you too have stood in those lunch lines, waiting for what seems like hours for a classical Wing Bar meal.

But to those who’ve somehow never had school lunch, I’ll be ranking almost all the lunches the school provides, so that maybe you can forget your lunch the day the school’s providing the best of the best. 

  1. Chicken Sandwich Bar
    1. Okay, okay. Somewhat boring, but c’mon. There really is nothing better than a Spicy Chicken Sandwich with a slice of Provolone cheese and a side of fries. 
  2. Nacho Bar
    1. Classic choice. I’m judging if you get chicken over beef though.
  3. Uncrustable Meal
    1. I just love Uncrustables and a bag of carrots isn’t bad either. 
  4. Wing Bar
    1. Seems to be the fan favorite among the school lunch crowd. Personally, I’m not the hugest fan, but I’m not completely opposed.
  5. Pizza Bar
    1. You know, I used to eat the school pizza everyday, 5 days a week, for an entire year. It’s good, but I’m tired. I am so tired.

Whether you pack lunch in your Vera Bradley lunchbox, or you religiously eat school lunch, we can all agree that Elkhorn South’s lunch is like no other.
