De-Carb-olized Spaghetti

School food is just not what it used to be. When I was in elementary school, I used to love the big fluffy rolls. I remember taking an extra nickle to school so I could buy an extra roll. What a no-no today. The kids are absolutely not allowed seconds. Then again, why would they want them? Nick describes the food as quite disappointing. Everything has to be fat-free to limit the calories and fat the kids eat while at school. There are no candy machines or unhealthy foods. When I was in high school, I lived on a Snicker Bar and a Diet Pepsi every day for lunch. Poor, skinny Nick will never have that luxury. He came home from school Monday and told me they had de-carb-olized spaghetti for lunch. We figure that is like eating red air. YUCK.
