Joe Smith: Poor at best and the portions were very small.
Rod: insufficient and nasty
Ben: the food was absolutely horrible. no matter what it was the fruit the bread, the meat anything that you ate was discusting. i took a bite of what looked to be beef strouganouf and i almost threw up right away. i got to say the burger was actually not too bad
Jade: terreavble. It was cold, tasteless and never on time. I have no idea where they get their cooks becouse they do not have to serve food like that. Growing up I hated school food, but this is ten times worse. The meals do not match example is bolonga and mashed potatoes.
