Is the BFS Lunch Elevating Its Game?
Popsicle Fridays? Chipotle-style bowls? Delicious BBQ chicken? Breakfast for lunch? This year BFS lunch has seemed to take a turn for the better as students rave about the new lunch options of this year. As opposed to last year's lunch, students have claimed that the flavors, creativity, and variety of this year's lunch have turned lunchtime into a highly anticipated event, often resulting in long lines as students eagerly await their meals.
As Sydney Bassin puts it, “I’ve been begging for a bad day of lunch so I can have an excuse to go out. This has been the best lunch I have eaten at school.”
If you attended BFS in middle school, you might remember that popsicles were served every Friday alongside pizza. It seems the high school has embraced this tradition too with the introduction of Popsicle Fridays–now giving lunch an extra layer of fun, as everyone has something to look forward to as the week comes to an end. Matisse pointedly says, “They should also bring back the chocolate milk from middle school.” Students have also pointed out that the chicken especially has gotten better, being consistently crispy, moist, and seasoned. As Jack Lassman expresses, “I’m still thinking about those BBQ chicken legs.”
With exciting new options and a renewed focus on flavor, it’s clear that students aren’t just eating lunch—they’re enjoying it. It will be exciting to see how the rest of the school lunches continue to impress the dining experience at BFS.
