...schools served about 5 billion lunches last year with an average price tag of $2.58 per meal. That cost will likely jump $0.30 - or 12% - per meal in the coming year, SNA estimates, or about $1.5 billion nationwide. Most schools already lose money on free or reduced-price lunch and breakfast programs; nearly 18 million students qualify for these meals, which are subsidized by the federal government, but at a rate far below the actual cost of providing the food.

...Hooper reports that the prosecutor's summing-up rattled Hurley and his defense team. But it did not sway the jury, which took just three hours (including lunch) to acquit him.

The experience reminded me that lunch at Subway followed by a subway ride back to work is still as foreign to the majority of China’s citizens as it is typical...
...hour doesn’t really do me much good. I have no choice here but to live, not by minutes but by moments. In the States, time feels like it’s bearing down on me: I’m always running late, I should be eating lunch already, and I can’t possibly get it all done. But in Barcelona, every second is an opportunity. It’s noticing the one cracked tile on a mosaicked café tabletop. Or the crooked-toothed smile of that 20-something-pierced-lip chica on the Metro...
