PORTSMOUTH, Va. — A photo of a Federally-approved lunch released to the Internet and picked up by WAVY television is becoming viral.

EAG News reports that Congress is intending to “add flexibility” to the unpopular school lunch program instead of scraping it all together.

A parent at the James Hurst Elementary school took the photo of the unappealing meal and placed it on social media. After dozens of people contacted 10 On Your Side who in turn contacted Portsmouth Public Schools.

We appreciate this parent’s concern about the presentation of this school lunch. Poor lighting and food presentation make this lunch unappealing.

Thus, because of the lighting, your eyes may see the photo above instead of the reality that follows.
