Breakfast for lunch?

By: Amber George

          Wow! Ham, eggs, tater tots, strawberries, a biscuit, and milk. Really, Breakfast for lunch? No body can say that Lake Hamilton School can’t be creative.  This year Lake Hamilton School has decided to add breakfast foods to the lunch menu. Students at Lake Hamilton School were surprised to see that breakfast was for lunch.....Brunch!!

       When asked, “How do you feel about having breakfast for lunch?” Heather Young replied with,” I love it, who wouldn’t?” ”It seems like it is more feeling then a normal lunch sometimes.”  Sean Esquibel replied with, “Breakfast for lunch?” “I think it’s a little odd.” When I asked the same two people if they could, would they take breakfast off the lunch menu?” Sean replied with, “No, breakfast is delicious and provides us with all the nutrients we need for the day.” Heather replied with, “I wouldn’t take it off the menu because, you have your meat (ham), carbohydrates (biscuit), your protein (eggs), your fruit (strawberries), fats (tater tots), and of course your calcium (milk), You have everything you need to make it through the day.”

       Many kids at Lake Hamilton think that breakfast for lunch is a good thing but there are also some kids that think it’s weird and should be taken off the menu. When asked why they didn’t like breakfast for lunch and why they would take it off the menu if they could, two Lake Hamilton High School students said they didn’t like it because two breakfasts a day was dumb.

       So, although breakfast for lunch can be awesome to some students, breakfast for lunch may not be as awesome to other students. Sure it provides you with a number of nutrients that will help you through the day but, two breakfasts a day may be too much. If breakfast was suppose to be a twice a day thing then why does lunch exist?
