Soup, Caesar salad wraps, taco salads, tacos, pizza, hamburgers, mac & cheese, grilled cheese, pancakes, quite a big variety, delivered hot to the school every day.

All the people I know with school age kids love it, as do their kids. I think it's $7 or $8 per meal on average.

Edit: the Teachers generally hate it, because it means extra work for them having to pass out lunches to their class once a week.
Our daughter's school participates in a similar program, but they get lunches from different restaurants (Freshii, Subway, etc). Because of this, Fridays are the best, because no school lunch!

Also, and I may have missed it if it has been mentioned, but in light of the ban on peanut butter, we have been using "Wow Butter"... I think it's gross, but it passes the muster for the kids.
