'Fed up' with school lunches

Students across the country are snapping photographs of their cafeteria lunches in an effort to keep their schools accountable. A new initiative called 'Fed Up', led by the nonprofit DoSomething.org, asks students to send in the photos to reveal "the real state of school lunch across the nation." 

The organization plans to create a report to distribute to school districts and nutrition advocates, in the hopes it'll be used as a tool to advocate for better school lunches. 

Below are some of the meals submitted to Fed Up's website. Visitors to the site can vote whether they would 'eat it' or 'toss it.'
