Greasy to gourmet: Seattle chefs help schools trade corn dogs for couscous | Grist: School lunch in Seattle has come a long way since I was a public school student. In the '90s, lunch was only a dollar, and the cafeteria served up square, rubbery pizza, scoops of mushy spaghetti, and Belgian waffles (everyone's favorite!). Fast-forward more than a decade: Elementary school lunch now costs $2.75, and for several years the Seattle School District has inched toward healthier offerings.
