School Lunch Unpacking Our Shared Stories

Food often unites us in unexpected ways - especially on Taco Salad Day. Drawing on material from more than seventy voices , these stories capture all walks of life - from celebrities and chefs to a circus family, new immigrants, a creative dad whose illustrated lunch bags went viral, plenty of unlikely cultural mashups, and one genuine cafeteria lady. Their experiences are compelling, familiar, and foreign at the same time, forming a cultural time capsule. School Lunch celebrates our diversity and our shared experience.
