Lunch Lady Action Figure Transports You Back to Lunch Lady Land and School Lunches

I Could Not Resist Buying This. Can You?

If someone would have told me that I'd actually see a Lunch Lady action figure, let alone buy one, I'd have had that person's head examined (unless the person was a proven psychic...and even then...) Then I saw the Lunch Lady action figure at Amazon.com. You can go to
Amazon at: www.amazon.com and check out this figure yourself. Put Lunch Lady action figure in the search box. There she is!

But first...I should warn you...if you have ever gone to public school or eaten school lunches, you might be surprised by the combination of fascination and repulsion that the sight of the Lunch Lady action figure sets off. I sure was! I took one look at her, posed behind an eerily accurate school lunch counter, with trays of various nameless casseroles, all looking just like the ones I remembered.

It was a bit more traumatic than I expected. I remembered lines of kids in our un-airconditioned school,, waiting for what seemed forever to see what we had for lunch. Would it be pizza (yay!) or mystery casserole (ugh). Would there be apple butter or brownies or stewed prunes? Would we get seconds or not? I could hear the noise of the kids, hear the clink of the serving spoons against the lunch trays and feel the fear I felt when those lunch ladies frowned in my direction. They were a tough bunch and didn't take any guff.

To my surprise, fascination won out over repulsion and before I knew it, I'd actually clicked on the Buy it Now button and purchased my very own Lunch Lady action figure!

Here is what I got:

1. A lunch lady action figure.

No surprise there. She looked just like the lunch lady I remembered from grade school, though, the same one who'd been there for all those years, complete down to the hairnet and large black mole. How on earth did they find my lunch lady and capture her appearance so perfectly? She even had the same white full-length apron like my lunch lady had and a certain shapeless, but largeish, figure Eerie, truly eerie.

But there was more, much more. I also received:

2. A removable scoop, serving tray, stickers, the lunch counter and more.

This brings back the memory of finding a fingernail in my school lunch (it was painted bright red!). YUCK!! Thanks, Jcorn. :)

LOL This sounds cute! I love the humor you put into this. I wouldn't mind having one for my kitchen. I remember those school lunches. I think the worst at my school was the hot dogs. They floated in water for so long they were many shades of pink... and gray. Yuck! The macaroni and cheese was terrible too. I didn't buy on those days. I was one of the few that ate the spinach though. Then there was the waldorf salad.... I never ate that either. Keep in mind, this was over 30 years ago. I enjoyed this article! :-)
