Schools May Experience Cafeteria Shortages This Year

While the news of lunches at public schools being free is great, there is also some not so great news. Schools may experience shortages of some of the staples found in cafeterias.

Via the Wall Street Journal:

Some cafeterias are cutting menu choices as food suppliers face labor shortages and transportation challenges that are adding costs and limiting supplies. Food distributors and school officials say they expect to run low on everything from canned fruit to lunch trays, and some worry that the lack of options will deter students from getting meals at school.

Among the stuff that could be missing? Canned fruit, chicken tenders, corn dogs, and beef patties!
