DON'T LET ERIC ADAMS GET RID OF OUR FAVORITE FOODS!
Hello. My name is Richard, and I am a student at NEST+M, a New York City Department of Education (or DOE) school. I eat school lunch every day. It's decent and it gives me something tasty to eat at least half of the time. Today I heard the news that Eric Adams was removing many foods from the lunch menu. Those foods were:
- Chicken Tenders (deliciously crunchy and soft)
- Roasted Chicken (really flavorful meat and skin)
- Salsa (goes great with chips)
- Guacamole (goes great with everything)
- Cookies (half the reason I tolerated my worst days)
- Fries (pure potato power)
- Dumplings (a crowd favorite)
- Burritos (people like them)
- ALL MEAT (on Mondays and Fridays, he wants to turn us all vegan like him)
Why are we getting rid of all these favorites? A budget cut! After wasting all of our money on futuristic garbage trucks, our mayor realized that we were in the red. So he decided to save 60 million dollars by screwing over thousands of kids who like to eat school lunch. Why? He's not a kid. He doesn't have to eat what he serves. Only when he needs to follow his own rules will anything change.
Eric Adams doesn't have to eat school lunch. But thousands of kids do! According to the DOE's very own statistics, more than 65 million meals are served every year.
Food fuels us. Food makes us happy. We need good food for our physical, mental, and emotional health. Please, sign the petition and SAVE SCHOOL LUNCH!
