My school district in Florida uses a payment service called "My School Bucks". I use it to reload the cafeteria account, but also to pay for other things like before and after school. So far they haven't charged a use fee. Lunch is about 3.25 (my kid doesn't buy it often), but breakfast is free.

What are you talking about? Don't you also draw a line when you choose to eat plants? I don't think they would agree to that. Untill humans develop the ability to photosynthesize, we are going to have to eat other species, there's no way around it.

If you're going to be pedantic, at least be correct. America is an entire continent, with over 30 countries. You're referring only to the United States of America, a single country.

We have a new Brightline in Florida that goes from Orlando to Miami and has about 5 stops in between. It's not super fast (it takes about 3.5h, which is similar to driving), and it can get expensive for a family, but not having to drive on I-95 in South Florida is worth every penny.

it seems to be very popular so far.
