A Year of the Most Deliciously Horrific 9th-Grade Lunches

It's a tale of a time when the cafeteria food was not only unremarkable but also a crime against humanity. Here's a list of the worst offenders:

• January: "The Mystery Meatball Massacre" - A gelatinous, grayish mass that seemed to have been cooked in a chemistry lab.
• February: "Freeze-Dried Disaster" - A packet of something that looked like it was made from the tears of a thousand sad souls.
• March: "The Great Cheese Fiasco" - A wheel of moldy, green cheese that seemed to have been aged in the depths of despair.
• April: "The Egg McMystery" - An omelette that looked like it had been sat on by a pack of wild animals.
• May: "The Pizza Apocalypse" - A pizza that was more akin to a crime scene than a culinary delight.
• June: "The Fruit Salad of Despair" - A mix of fruit that seemed to have been picked from the darkest, most foreboding corners of the cafeteria.
• July: "The Summer of Sausage" - A sausage that was more hot dog than actual sausage.
• August: "The Salad of the Damned" - A mess of lettuce, carrots, and what looked like it could have been a discarded shoe.
• September: "The Mystery Meatloaf Massacre" - A meatloaf that seemed to have been made from a combination of mystery meat and regret.
