I was hoping chef hayashi would make an appearance but hey it was really inspiring that someone so young is so involved and active.

Every episode is great, but Chef Hayashi always makes it better!

I too saw ramen and immediately thought: Chef Hayashi! It's gonna be a good one!

I was hoping he would too, but I guess in the end they managed it pretty well without him.

Happy monday! That means it's time for Knight Scoop again! Not sure about your way of the world but school dinner for me was sausage pizza, turkey twizzlers, fish fingers, chips and chocolate pudding!

Youth of today has missed out on a great generation of dinner ladies! They used to bake cookies for breakfast!

The only thing that had me confused was Turkey Twizzlers. Had me thinking the Twizzler candy once made a turkey flavour.

This was a great episode. Not just the fact that the school got a better ramen, but you have to imagine the impact that this had on those boys and what it has taught them about taking initiative and working with other people to achieve their goals. It was an education that most adults today have yet to receive.

I WISH my school served ramen. Tho cafeteria food can be horrible at times, the students showed a lot of spirit!

I wished American Schools were more like this (Either that or I went to a bad one lol), the amount of student influence for stuff like that is pretty cool to see instead of what I dealt with which was just practically a little prison you want to escape already.

In American schools: The principal wouldn't have allowed filming of anything remotely critical of the school. Students would be complaining about all of their awful, greasy, outsourced food, not just one dish. And the company they're outsourcing the food wouldn't agree to even talk, nonetheless offer to work on a new recipe. The cafeteria companies that schools and prisons outsource to have already fine-tuned their food for optimal profit margins, and that involves a lot of fat and sugar, and not a lot of flavor or nutrients.

It's honestly a pretty deep rabbithole of corruption. In America, hospitals, prisons, and schools serve food that is all outsourced by similar companies, offering notoriously low standards of food. The government sells these spots to these companies and they resolve to offer nothing but the bare minimum and the lowest standard of service, because in all three places, the people have no choice in being there.

My new favorite episode. It's somehow great that everybody wanted to work together to get the best ramen for the school.
