Lunch Lady slammed for serving food that is too good
- scarmig 14y agoThis is one of those cases where a story fits very cleanly into a pre-existing narrative. It's a useful exercise in those cases to try to stretch your mind and figure out what parts might be being left out. No, no knowledge of the incident beyond the article, but Sweden is hardly a Harrison Bergeron society.

- steve8918 14y agoIt's very sad that instead of trying to figure out how and where this person went right in terms of preparing food, and trying to adopt those practices across the country, they chose to stifle it instead. That's classic bureaucracy at its finest. It's easy to say that it's because Sweden has a socialist nature, but I have a feeling this type of thinking is common in the US as well.
- mseepgood 14y ago"because it was unfair that students at other schools didn't have access to the unusually tasty offerings" Sweden: welcome to socialism. Everything has to be equally bad.
- gapanalysis 14y agoI don't believe this kind of reaction can be solely attributed to socialism. It's endemic among "entitlement" oriented individuals. But the real failure here has little to do with what is fair. The thinking here is badly flawed at many levels.
