There’s only three counties in Europe where this doesn’t happen - Finland, Estonia, and Sweden.
Yes 'merica bad but here in Europe we have many of the same issues they’re just not publicized as widely. Even the EU school fruit, veg and milk scheme is only subsidized if the member state chooses and most charge full price.
Respectfully, but what the actual fuck are you talking about? I grew up in the shittiest of shitty SE-European countries, and we had daily lunch coupons that we could spend at any restaurant, cafe, grocery store etc. I never once went hungry at school, or went into debt. The very concept would absolutely abhor every European person I know.
Yes, we have our own problems. Tons of them. Some very serious. But the safety and basic human rights/needs of children is absolutely not one of them.
Then name the country not all of Europe because you’re objectively wrong. I also grew up in Europe and we didn’t get meal tokens, if you want to go on the eu website they have various things explaining their school food programs and the current state of play.
As for you not knowing any Europeans that wouldn’t abhor the concept of parents paying for school meals you’re almost certainly mistaken, look at polling data we’re not living in a socialist utopia and pretending like we are only benefits right wing political parties
