A lot of parents probably dont even know about the junk their kids are eating...its not often you ge a full answer from a kid when you ask what they had for lunch, and a lot would hear 'cucumber' and think thats fine...not knowing it was 2./3 slices  . And some cant even afford to change it, not everyone can afford to make packed lunches daily...so their kids HAVE to eat what the school provide. Which IMO should be healthy...especially with everyone so up in arms about obese children etc.

It's not expensive to make packed lunches though.
