What seven people in your school want you to know about the new school year
I work in the school kitchen and I’m looking forward to a new year! Here are some things you might not know about your school kitchen staff.
When we make the food, we want everyone to like it. Obviously, everyone is coming from different homes and used to different kinds of food and cooking styles, so it’s inevitable that some kids won’t love the food. But we do our best. Remember, no cook is ever making food they want kids not to enjoy! Maybe if you knew how much we wanted you to like the food, it would help you have a better attitude.
I’m going to share a personal story with you. Due to a medical condition I have, I can’t eat any food at all. I get “food” directly into my body through an IV inserted in my vein. Appreciate that you can eat! Enjoy the taste of the food.
Since I can no longer enjoy the food I prepare, I work with food only as a mitzvah. It’s a chesed to prepare food other people can enjoy, to help them get strong and healthy.
