Most adults look back on high school lunches with disdain, the "mystery meat," blue potatoes or what have you.

According to the report, 661 students said they would buy breakfast at the school, while 216 said they would not. "Students sound like they are interested in buying breakfast at school, and there is plenty of information that shows students function best when they are properly fed," said Fermi Principal Paul Newton. "If this is worthwhile for everyone, great."
