What school lunches look like in different countries (13 photos)

Feeding students in schools is a controversial issue. After all, everything depends on the school itself. Somewhere a full-fledged dining room is occupied by a small buffet with a couple of rolls. And there are private schools where the food is like in a restaurant.
