- I've always been curious on how different school lunches are from around the world, so I decide to recreate school lunches and decide which country had the best one!
Huge shoutout to Bryan (@NachoAverageFinds) for helping me taste test

Getting a ton of great feedback! Thank you all.
We couldn’t fit as much countries as we wanted, but we are working on a bigger video in which it will be at least double the countries!
Let me know which countries you want added to this series 👇
Try the school lunch from the country where rubix cubes and ball pens came from aka the Hungarian school lunch!
Can you do Russia?🇷🇺
Yes
Do Bangladesh! 🇧🇩
Do South Africa! 🇿🇦
As an indian, no one here is served naan and dal makhni/ dal fry here, roti and plain boiled dal is served which is comparatively bland but more nutricious as well
🇬🇧🇬🇧
on the last day of school, we got a slightly bland lamb and chicken biriyani
Are private school lunches counted as school lunches?
It’s not roti it’s naan even tho I came from Pakistan 🇵🇰 dosnt mean I don’t know what Indian and pakistan and Muslim food are called
@@Axolotlplayz5711 roti is a real thing. It's another flatbread.
Y’all should make a part 2 with Russia, Brazil, Vietnam, Spain, Germany, Turkey, South Korea and Kenya
Omg yes!!
Yes!
Yea
@@Topinternational1 me too
i agree with you
As an American student I can say that the school lunch is inaccurate,
The cookie wouldn’t even exist, it’d probably be an apple or something.
The burger would’ve been reheated in the microwave
The fries would’ve been cold and hard
And the milk would be 1 day away from its expiration date
Lol facts
Don't fruits and vegetables being in small packages and pizza being ok at best
Well also as a American I disagree school lunches usually use a lot of junk food and sweets
but to honest i would have nasty cookies
Facts
As a British citizen who went to school,I can confirm we have never had a turkey twizler in the whole menu of school dinners(and also we have never had mushy peas)but you got the mash potatoe and beans right.
I work in a UK school and I can tell you that we never get anything like that, we do get fish and chips (fries) on Fridays but curry is a very popular meal, a chicken korma with rice, naan and a fresh salad, dessert would be a choice between fresh fruit or something like apple crumble (made with Bramley apples) and custard made from custard powder - don’t knock it until you try it.
reall in primary and secondary schools we get more exciting meals
Apart from mash potatoes, everything he put on that list I’ve never head, our food is usually way better than that, we get pizza, chicken, fries, REGULAR peas, fish (not the one he showed in the video)
Brian is the best taster, his honest reactions were truly understandable. He and Patrick were good buds for a long time
Yes
I knew he was gonna ❤ this comment
Me as a kid im from România and i live in nerderlands i think italy france and usa has the best lunches
Heh, taste buds
As a French I can tell that we have the same meals and the only differences are that the vegetables are too cooked, the steak is a frozen low quality steak and is not as big. The mushroom sauce is ketchup, the starters are often pasta or rice from previous meals and the pastries are rare (we often get yogurt instead).
Depends on your school I guess
@JaydenStaple, moi c'est vraiment salade au fromage en entrée plat de viande en sauce en plat avec du riz où des pâtes et des légumes et en dessert yaourt et fruit (les crèmes dessert aussi sont parfois présente)
@thaomeelayadi nous on a genre une salade, un sandwich au fromage, un jus d'orange et du pain mais ta quand meme un bon plat
BUT did you get cheese?
Frero moi c pate ou riz poulet surgelé ou viange surgelé parfois du jus mais souvent de l'eau et en dessert sois un fruit sois un yaourt et c rare oue creme dessert
Why is this series form your channel so enjoyable to watch?? It’s so satisfying seeing and comparing different foods from different places or periods of time. I’m not sure why. Please continue these types of videos!
I am French, and I do love the amazing food we eat. One thing though, you forgot cheese. Usually we have a bit of Brie or Camembert to go with the rest. Other than that the meal is just about right. Pastries we get pretty rarely and the salad at the start never heard of it.
La chance frero moi c afreu
@@ToonGoten559 a bon? C’est dommage
I live in the Uk and I’ve never heard of Turkey Twizlers, most Uk school meals is fish and chips, fish fingers, peas (they rarely have mushy peas), jacket potato and cake and custard.
Yeah
Fr I was just like what the hell are turkey twizlers and I’ve never been served mushy peas either. Tbh it’s all carbs
I'm a 90s kid and we had turkey twizzlers until Jamie Oliver got them taken away. My memory of school lunches in primary school were things like fish cakes, mash potatoe with veggies. Dessert usually sponge and custard.
My school also banned desert when I just started ks2 in 2018
So true

Thanks for posting this I need motivation on what to write for my newspaper class. I will be writing about how lunch foods impact a students mood and academics for the day.
As a French, I don’t know about the other areas of France but personally I’d be lucky to even get a frozen steak at my school, the food they serve is bland and repetitive and the rare times where we actually get something decent either it’s unhealthy or in small quantity
MY American school lunch is a nightmare. The fries are basically uncooked and have the texture and taste of regular potato’s, the burgers have hairs in them every other time, and the bun of the burger is darker that the actual meat. I don’t know why, but the bun is a DARK BROWN color. Other than that, all the other meals they serve tastes extremely processed, and their pears are literally as hard as a rock. Once I hit the table really hard with a pear, and the table dented. And, on Christmas they served cookies with literal GREEN BATTER. They were so stale and they tried to cut costs by artificially dying the batter instead of just getting icing. That’s my terrible American school lunch system in a nutshell. I hope you see this.
Nvm I commented too late you’ll never see this😢
we get served "fried chicken" that is all pink inside
at last they dont serve nutraloaf
@@birdoishere saw this lol
Honestly its not as bad as my school when they gave me a Block of milk, it was literally a square frozen block of milk, And god help you if they served Chicken drumsticks (or anything chicken really)
Cons about my school lunch: Usually inedible food, dry af hambugers, raw chicken, milk that tastes and looks like glue, Pizza that tastes like cardboard.
Pros: They serve ONE good meal (But maybe im crazy)
Finnish school lunch is pretty good considering the tiny amount of money they can spend and the high costs in Finland. It's free for students from 1st to 9th grade.
Swedish school food is dogshit

For the next video, you should compare different airline foods from all over the world (e.g. Alaska Airlines, Air France, Korean Air, etc.). 😊
as someone from great britain i have never had mushy peas with my school dinners you nailed everything else
Italy has to be my favorite school lunch. Also, here in America, the food in school can also be horrible with the burgers in my school just being put in a pan with no seasoning.
It matters what part of the country you live in. Rural China has lower quality than rich coastal cities. I live in a wealthy state, Colorado in the United States,and the meals were usually pretty fresh and good. The state government does well, they have free meals for lunch and free lunches in summer for low income people.
Mines aren’t even pan cooked it’s just some precooked microwaved patty and 1 month old buns,no condiments or nothing sometimes they don’t even heat up the patty
4:04 Patrick s face when he spits the wine out deserves an S tier on its own
As someone from England, I can confirm that is exactly what we eat (I've never had that school dinner in my life..)
Yeh like yiu would be lucky to get Cheese with your pasta
CAP
fym cap bruv, I think I know what I ate...@@DatsSUSBro
Wow, this video is really great, I enjoyed it so much! My favorite is the Italian school lunch!😍 Could you maybe do a second part with at least one Central European country? For example Polish, Slovak or Czech school lunch? 😊
Always a good day when Patrick releases a new video
The mid day meal program was first introduced by Kamarajar of Tamil Nadu and was spread all across India. Also we have breakfast
I just found about your yt channel when you cook 100 years of school lunch and I’m already a big fan keep up the great work
This is one of the best channels ever ,keep it up man!
W PATRICK! You have inspired me to start baking myself :) Question: What's the outro music you always use? (not the one in this video)
As a British person - this wasn't actually served when I was growing up. We were served stuff like mac and cheese, tuna pasta salad or sausages and mash for the main(every day was varied) with a sprinkle cake with custard.
I love these vids, these are the best! I can't wait to see where Thailand, Lebanon, Canada, and Brazil rank in the next.
Rip lynia you are a beautiful person and you are the best cooker and everyone miss you fly high🕊️
as someone from the uk my school dinners was never like that i had actual food like shepherd's pie but i never had THAT

Patrick with them bangers 😊😊
6:11 after that it got even worse lol😂😂
I'd like the recipes you used for the top 3!!
As a Mexican some schools have food to feed kids but sometimes they have to buy or make it at home
Here in Vietnam its actually kind of similar to China if not liturally the same way, its usually family style with the only different being the veggie soup and no desserts. we also go to sleep after lunch which honestly defeats me in the afternoon 😂 I dont speaks for all schools but thats how it is where I go
Must chinese schools actually don't serve you something like watermelon for you as some kind of dessert.
I would say Chinese school lunch really varies from school to school, usually the private schools and international schools have better lunchs cos you get a variety of choices, while in some public schools, you get no choice, sometimes there are things like worms and hair in the food, and the teachers and canteen monitors often force you to eat it up when you can`t finish the food. I really miss the food in my high school, which consists of a variety of mouth-watering dishes like Zha Jiang Mian, steak with pasta, over rice, rice noodles, and so much more! Our high school cafeteria have 3 floors, and the 3rd floor has the best food! I am hungry just thinking about that! 🤤
You know it’s a good day when Patrick uploads ❤
Hey Patrick can you do a part 2 video
I might be late but as a student studying in japan the school lunches here are very interesting and nutritious but the one you made is one of many school lunches in japan and the plating is also different too
P.s this is just my experience so don’t take it to seriously 😅
Cool Patrick
Yeah
As someone from the UK, we do not have any of this we usually have different things different days, but most days it’s meat and vedge which is optional and a pudding which is raisins, ice cream, cookie, or a brownie.
As a Brazilian, i challenge you to do Brazilian dishes authentically(feijoada, panqueca de carne moída, açaí[pronounced a-say], Xerém, cuscuz, farofa)
I’m Mexican and our foods are okay. We only get sodas on Fridays.
As a person that lives in mexico this is true 🤩🤑
In Britain that is not what we eat. we have fish and chips and also like roast dinner and other foods as well
It's school dinner from the 90s 😂
I live in Portugal and there school lunacy is soo nice I had mandarin today it was good amazing
Patrick never fails to bring us top quality food videos!
P.S. The short name for Patrick is Pat.
The M4 Sherman is a tank produced in ww2 with a 75 mm gun 2 30. Cal machine guns, and 1 50. Cal machine gun it can reach speeds of 30 mph
My school has a ton of options. We have the average burgers and pizza and frys but we also have stir fry, nachos, panninis, wraps, salads, yogurt parfaits, and free fresh fruits and veggies.
This was fun to watch

Como mexicano puedo decir que aqui en ninguna escuela sirven arroz ni frijoles, y en ninguna tampoco venden coca cola (aunque si venden otros refrescos como uno local llamado 'Caballitos') .
Translated: As a Mexican I can say that here in no school do they serve rice or beans, and none of them sell Coca Cola either (although they do sell other soft drinks like a local one called 'Caballitos').
¿Qué sirven en el colegio?
@@ucchanisshi El menu varia dependiendo de la escuela, en el caso de la escuela en donde curso hay varias opciones: salchipapas, pizza, hamburguesas, tacos, quesadillas, y una especie de comida llamada tostilocos que consiste en tostitos con ceviche, y antes tambien vendian brownies, pero los dejaron de vender por que casi nadie los compraba. Y respecto a las bebidas solamente venden agua de jamaica, agua de limon, el mencionado caballitos que es un refresco de varios sabores, y un jugo llamado zubba.
@@oscarl4769 Gracias por la información.
6:25 Not Patrick doing a school dinner from the 90s. That's 30 years out of date 😂😂
I used to work in a primary school kitchen, that wasn't a British school dinner. Jacket potato with a choice of toppings was the most popular. There was also a salad and fresh fruit cart.
😂😂I am French and I admit that I do not know in which school canteen he ate but it is very far from the truth
oui, vrai
Réele
Hi Patrick, sorry for the inconvenience. great video though... I'm Italian and I'd like to tell you a couple of things about the lunch you showed. first of all, fresh ingredients are not used. then they wouldn't serve something as expensive as salmon even if you asked them in Chinese. School meals here in Italy are prepared in one place and then reheated if everything goes well. In 99% of cases you find pasta overcooked and tasteless. the salad looks like it was made a century before and the second course is often slices of chicken or pork loin because they are really cheap. the bread is often of poor quality while the fruit is good if it's good. the only schools in Italy that offer a decent lunch are boarding schools for rich children and there are few of those. As a true Italian I'll tell you that honestly even F is too much considering how bad school canteens are in Italy...
You should see school lunches in poland. We mostly have sandwiches and sometimes snacks, in highscool we can buy stuff in stores in breaks, and in my school we don't have lunch given by school, in primary school it was but only for kids whom parent payd every month (one time some kid wasn't in school so i took they place and i eted pretty mid spagett)in preschool my mom payd for lunches and it was mostly soup and kompot (homemade fruit juice)
Chinese schools cafeteria is incredibly large, my middle school cafeteria can hold 7000kids eat together, and we have around 80 cooks making food day and night in there. The school cafeteria also had such a wide variety of dishes that I could eat three different meals a day for more than half a month.only problem is when the quantity goes up to this level the quality will be hard to control, once I found a small piece of brush in my lamb organ soup noodle.
In India mid day meals are only served in gov colleges and lemme say it's just plain rice/chapati and dal which are tastes disgusting af. But hey if ur lucky enough u might get lizard tail or cockroach leg. And the mid day meal scheme was only introduced so poor kids would attend schools instead of working but a lot of times they only come for the lunch time or leave right after it.
Sorry but many high profile schools like goneka, birla, DPS and Ambani served very good school lunch which includes rajma or Dal makhani or Dal tadka....
@@dr.khushbooagarwal786 They're private schools with quality school lunches which their parents pay for. Mid day meal scheme is only applicable for gov school where the students get -F tier food.

The Italy lunch looked so amazing i would do anything to eat that
my school meals back when i was there in the 90s-2000s we had things like cottage pie, tod in the hole, pizza, bangers and mash with gravy, Turkey Twizlers was servers chips or smile faces and beans which was great before jamie oliver come in and ruined school meals. for puddings we use to have different sponge cakes, shortbread with mint custard or pink custard, jam rollie Polly with custard. my area was place called derbyshire.

Yes it won't
hey patrick you should make a video where you rate polish food. they got delicious food there, also i am from poland
France reminds me of ours lol im went to school in luxemburg. We usually got pizza or pasta, sometimes chicken or steak. And we had like 3 different chefs in different cantinas, depending if u wanted italian or french food
My school gives us the burgers and chicken sandwiches and stuff but they leave the top bun on the side and give us sauces and toppings to choose from
More countries please❤
anyway great video loved it. Now I know where I’m moving to 😂
I'm italian and the italian lunch doasent look even closer of what you made in fact your is a lot better❤
Your such a nice guy! I saw you comment on the greatest grandma that died your comment was very nice! You deserve a sub
As a french person myself, we typically have yogurts for dessert and for salad we have carotte rappee
All of them is honestly better then the food im eating rn lol.

Dutch meals in my school is wrap or bread with chicken on it or grilled cheese
The HohOhOHo got me😭💀
I'm in school in UK and we have roast dinner mash potato and veggies and a flavor water or a fish vegs and chips (fries) or a chicken drumstick with chips,(fries)
They’re all so good I love them I will subscribe and like the video❤
looking at the thumbnail made me gasp bro, where in the us are yall getting these lunches
You should try polish lunch wich is schabowy with potatos, fried cabbage and kompot as a drink + apple for desert
try the egg and tomato with the rice next time! and add some of the juice from the tomato on the rice and mix it togather, its rlly good its my childhood fav
as someone who grew up on British school dinners ive never seen turkey twizzlers in my life 😂 beans is accurate tho
I like how he roasts the food even though he the one who cooks them 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As an English person from the uk the school lunches are varied so some are good and some are bad. Usually in high schools they serve fresh food and you have a lot to choose from
patrick can u please do new zealand school lunch???
Man I am always so jealous of kids with school lunches in NZ we have to bring our own lunch EVERYDAY
Thank you Patrick for posting this video today! I was just told that I have a non cancerous brain tumor. This video has really brightened my day!
I'm a boomer. USA. Back in my day, school lunches were GREAT. Entrees: meatloaf, ham, ham and mac&cheese, chicken and dumplings (casserole, not soup), fried chicken, pizza, pot pies, chili, chili con carne, salisbury steaks, spaghetti, and more. Breads: biscuits/dinner rolls/cornbread (usually with the chili and the ham/mac meals and was a big square cut chunk of cornmeal based cornbread (not jiffy mix instant). Our veggies were the typical corn, green beans, peas, but they were seasoned. Sometimes a very small salad mixture or stewed tomatoes (quite bad). Almost always some kind of potato (often, raw potato sticks, which were rather interesting). Desserts were a large variety. Drinks were: Milk. That part was boring. By the time I was in high school - lunches had become pretty dull and packaged tasting, with far less variety. Kids spent their lunch money on the vending machines.
Can you do 100 years + of military meals with Chef Rush

Can you try school lunch in Australia!
This is one of the many thing we get at school we even get biryani with curd or puri and channa orroti paneer
For india, the mid day meal also differs from state to state catering to the local cuisine of that region. The lunch that you showed might be more north indian, also usually roti is served, not naan.
For example the state that I am from, there are more non vegetarians also rice is a bigger staple than roti. It also changes slightly based on the day of the week. Usually its rice, a veg curry or a dal with veggies added, an egg or soya curry or a bit of chicken.
In south india, where I live currently, It can be rice, Rasam (a light soupy dish eaten with rice), a vegetable side. Can also be 1 dish some days like bisibele bath which is made of rice, lentils and vegetables.
Also, all the lunches above are for public school system in India. Usually most Upper middle class people in India (people with stable jobs drawing a decent salary) usually goes to private schools where the food served is very very different. It might be more at par with western countries with larger variety with options of veg and non veg meals and with lot of dishes like a set with rice, roti, 2 types of curries, dal, paneer for veg/chicken for non veg and a dessert like gulab jamun/kheer etc.
Japan was cleanest eating. Also..my friend made chickpeas and rice in a spicy sauce and topped off with plain yogurt. Pretty good!
Wen he rubbed his belly I died😂😂😂
