AP ImagesAs First Lady Michelle Obama continues her mission to make our schools a healthier place, the Associated Press decided to go out and see how school lunches in the US stack up against those served around the world.
The AP sent photographers to Asia, Europe, Africa, and South America to see what kids in different countries ate for lunch this week.
The photographers found that while most schools abroad don't actually sell lunch, the ones that do put a "premium" on feeding their students healthy meals. Students were more likely to go home for lunch or bring a home-cooked meal.
Obama's campaign aims to have more whole grains, fruits, and vegetables served in school cafeterias.
However, students in the US have not exactly been enthusiastic. Recent backlash has included kids taking photos of their meager school lunches and tweeting them, or just refusing to eat them altogether.
