Would you eat this school spicy chicken sandwich

[-]

TooTiredAndBored@reddit

I was a middle school kitchen manager for 2 years.

That chicken looks great.

But those Hot Tots need to be air fried for another 8 or so minutes. When I first started i trained with the previous Kitchen Manager (she was like 70) and she legitimately used a convection oven on the split mode for half air fried and half steamer to make tater tots. I had to hold my tongue. It was disgusting, mushy tots for lunch.

Needless to say I never let that happen under me.

Difficult_Buddy_3071@reddit

Throw it right in the toilet, save yourself the trouble of digestion

[-]

b2pizza@reddit

Used to buy double lunch on these kinda days

[-]

SCB1988@reddit

I would mess it up. After sadly eating those soggy tots.

[-]

Foreverwise427@reddit

That looks exactly like what my school served, they always had the rotating menu but burgers, chicken sandwiches, and spicy chicken sandwiches were always available to choose from. They weren’t great but they were far from bad.

[-]

Beniskickbutt@reddit

YES!

[-]

Mypopsecrets@reddit

Yeah this looks exactly how I remember lunch chicken sandwiches looking over twenty years ago. I'd load it up with pickles and mustard and it's a fantastic lunch

[-]

Hopeful_Business7582@reddit

Yup and the lunch lady always let me get a boat load of bbq

[-]

Mypopsecrets@reddit

We only had free access to ketchup, mustard and pickles, I'd take a ton of pickles then mix the pickle juice up in the ketchup for my own sauce lol

[-]

Existing-Antelope-20@reddit

yall had fuckin pickles? gahdamn

[-]

wasteoffire@reddit

Shoot we got whatever packets the lunch lady included and that was it. This would still be considered a bomb lunch tho

[-]

Hopeful_Business7582@reddit

Same. Actually after the first little cup they all cost like a dime or something I can't remember anymore. I had one time where I got into trouble for taking extra. I always LOVED sauces. Even make my own now as an adult.

The day I got in trouble I waited until the last lunch period ended. Got a hall pass and went to the cafe. I found the worker and we sat and talked. And from that day on shed have a big cup of bbq. Like super sized that she would pass me in the lunch line. For free. This was a very long time ago

[-]

LardLad00@reddit

Fuck them undercooked tots but I'm eating them anyway

[-]

buckeye25osu@reddit

Could be the lighting

[-]

TehZiiM@reddit

If I were a kid sure… think adult me would start bringing my own lunch

[-]

Anubis-Hound@reddit

I'd eat it so quick it would tear a hole in the fabric of reality. I'd tear this shit UP.

[-]

Ambitious-Damage-327@reddit

This is the same as the new Wendy's spicy.

[-]

mythicapixy@reddit

Throw some mayo and/or a slice of cheese and I'm absolutely 1000% ok for the rest of lunch and the end of the day.

[-]

AccomplishedAside314@reddit

Yup. With some ketchup cuz you know that thing is dry. But so tasty.

[-]

TatleTaleStrangler92@reddit

That spicy chicken sandwich was actually spicy 🌶️ and it slapped

[-]

shberk01@reddit

I ate those things for 12 years. They won't kill you.

[-]

hummingfalcon@reddit

Yep

[-]

Pyr0sky3@reddit

Yes😭! I use to tear those up back when I was in hs

[-]

[-]

SpectralBeekeeper@reddit

Yea

[-]

Girafarigno@reddit

I’m good on the thawed to room temp tots

[-]

whatsthew3rd@reddit

Fucked yeah they slapped! This with some Ken's honey mustard was my absolute go to! 2 of em, Mac and cheese, and mashed potatoes.

[-]

davesnother3@reddit

Yup

[-]

Read_Five@reddit

Give me some lettuce and mayo and I’d pay $20 for that at an MLB game and be fine with it…

[-]

Unique_Username2005@reddit

When they started serving this in my school district, it made the list of things I'd pick first. Not amazing but far better than some other food they served.

I'd probably pick anything else over school cafeteria food nowadays.

[-]

LucidRamblerOfficial@reddit

Chicken sandwiches in school were, as far as I can tell, universally “the best option”.

The only folks I knew who WOULDN’T get them either had dietary restrictions or brought lunch from home

[-]

RadarSmith@reddit

This was easily the best school lunch option ever offered in public schools.

[-]

QueezyF@reddit

Those baked cheese sticks we got went pretty hard, as well

[-]

DokiDokiLove@reddit

It was my go to with a packet or two of mayo.

[-]

Mrpandacorn2002@reddit

I always used honey mustard idk why but it hit so right

[-]

QueezyF@reddit

Ken’s is still my favorite honey mustard to this day because of these sandwiches at school.

[-]

xPhilt3rx@reddit

Pack or two of mayo and a layer of hot Cheetos.

[-]

DokiDokiLove@reddit

Ohh, sounds good

[-]

Weeaboounlimited@reddit

I would do one pack of mayo and some hot sauce to mix it with!

[-]

Devitostitos@reddit

Are we really pretending this is some abomination to serve to children OP?

[-]

Nightbird88@reddit

We used to eat these on the regs in school.

[-]

joshg8@reddit

You’d get excited for this

[-]

QueezyF@reddit

This, cheese sticks, and the nuggets were always the best day.

[-]

SquareTaro3270@reddit

It was this or wilted salad with sad, dry matchstick carrots and a single tomato if you were lucky, or “pizza” which was just pasta sauce on half a soggy wheat bagel

[-]

I’m fact I did for the 12 years it took me to complete public school.

Chicken patty on a bun

As a teacher, yes. Yes I would.

[-]

Hell yeah, pass me a few mayo packets

The tots look like they have the flu.

Everybody loved chicken patty day

[-]

alejjjandriiita@reddit

It’s been 8 years since I’ve eaten this and I can tell you one thing. You’re gonna crave it in like 4 years randomly, you’re gonna have all of these better restaurant options even maybe make one better your self but you will crave the simplicity of this sandwhich one day.

[-]

Icy_Rabbit2253@reddit

i had that in school. in high school they had onions, tomatoes and bbq/ranch available to top the sandwich. it's pretty good.

[-]

Lopsidedlopside@reddit

I’m so weird in that I fucking love this shit, and I purposely try and recreate it at home. Those toys fresh out the oven? No, let them cool down and get a bit mushy first.

[-]

CPOx@reddit

I’d eat that sandwich for sure

The tater tots looked like they were cooked using the heat of the moon

[-]

Peachy_Pie80@reddit

This was the comment I was looking for. Those tater tots barely look thawed.

[-]

casual_werewolf@reddit

The tots are just a vessel for table salt and ketchup at this point.

[-]

Turnthekey2669@reddit

Not without some mayo or some ranch, for the sandwich AND tots.

Listen, we all know full well it ain't 100% chicken and it looks like shit. But we all would inhale it immediately with no question and probably ask for another. Lil mayo and some lettuce on that bad boy and it's friggn heaven.

Why not

[-]

Throw some mayo and pickle on that, hell yeah.

Put some toys on that mf, two mayo packets and maybe some chips if you can find some for the simulated crunch
