Rumor was that it was being served as burgers in our school lunches. I'm not
sure what that meat was but it didn't look or taste like hamburger. Was a
pale color, very soft and oddly sweet. I thought perhaps it had bread crumbs
in it as filler. Guess I will never know. I did work in the cafeteria, but
never had anything to do with the meat besides serving it.
