Fifth hour hunger makes
lunch hour
the biggest test of the day
Are you hungry? What’s for lunch?
Should I have salad bar or spaghetti bar? Of
course the main line looks good today, and
the a la carte line has so much to choose
from. What shall I have for lunch?
One of the main parts of a student’s day
is eating, and whether the meal is a healthy
on or not is left up to the RHS food connois­
seur.
“The girls are leaning toward eating
healthier, said Head Cook Lillian
Kvetensky, “and the guys just eat a lot.”
Senior Jeff Thomas said, “A health food
