To think this school lunch is a choking hazard?

[PolkaDotAfroCircus]

A picture from Facebook from a local school. The red grapes don't look cut lengthways, I'm guessing due to being almost perfect spheres.

(Child is 3, almost 4 going full time in September, this is the lunch introduction)

but they are cut lengthways - you can see the dot at the top where they were pulled off the vine

The red grapes are cut lengthways...

They are cut lengthways, and even if they weren’t as you said they’re a perfect sphere so it wouldn’t really make much difference.

At least they’re cut!

I think by primary age they can chew a grape I can't imagine school kitchen staff will cutgrapesfor maybe 100 school dinners.

They are cut lengthways.
Regardless, anyone could choke on anything.
Surely it's neither here nor there how the grapes are chopped

That's a miserable and dry looking lunch anyway.

The grapes are fine. And they have been cut. Can't see the issue with them.

Why do they get potatoes with pizza? Like why? And bread too? Weird combination imo.

The grapes are probably just for the picture as I doubt that was actually taken at lunch time, it’s a staged picture

You sound a bit precious OP
Do you cut up all your child's food until it's just mush that would be very hard to choke on?

You’re forensically examining school website photos?! They’ll have rolled out a more aesthetically pleasing fruit pot than normal for the photos anyway.

Oh it is cut well spotted but . I work with pre schoolers I cutgrapes but I didn't know they had to be cut a certain way

Ah, I see. PFB?

I'm more concerned about the number of carbs on that boy's plate. But step away. You're on the path to madness. Let the school deal.

1. the grapes clearly have been cut
2. a 4 year old should be able to chew a grape
3. that lunch looks shit; pizza, bread and potatoes?!

They’ll have rolled out a more aesthetically pleasing fruit pot than normal for the photos anyway.

Definitely!

I’d be more concerned about bread, pizza and potatoes on the same plate. Not that I buy into the carb fear generally, but that is a bit much and not very balanced.

The grapes have been cut!

However, I agree with this: pizza, bread AND potatoes?! Really!?

They are cut lengthways in my children's school as a matter of course. No one wants a child to choke at school.

If you want to complain if complain about bread bread and potato being served. The fruit pot is the only thing that looks edible

I'd be more concerned about the triple-carbing seeing as the grapes are cut.
Meh

I can't believe you have posted this! 😂

And the grapes are cut lengthways. What is wrong with you?

Surely it should be pizza and smiley faces salad nobody especially children is going to want pizza and potatoes

That’s a pretty poor lunch, I think, compared to most schools. Bread potatoes and pizza?!!

Are you anxious generally about PFB starting school OP?

Oh yeah school dinners always triple carb. I'm surprised there isn't pasta on there as well.

The grapes are cut lengthways. They are cut the same way as I used to cut them for the toddler I babysat. The lunch doesn't have any choking hazards that I can see.
