What's for Breakfast: A Warm Muffin

By Ed Bruske

Wait. Isn't that the same blueberry muffin we recently saw served in a plastic wrapper?

Indeed, it is. But the cook at my daughter's elementary school explained that she prefers to serve the muffins warm, so she unwraps each one and heats them in the oven.

Would you rather have the plastic-wrapped Otis Spunkmeyer muffins the schools served last year?




Here's the breakfast alternate: whole wheat bagel with a small tub of cream cheese.

The menu on Chartwells' website says the fruit would be orange wedges. Instead, there's a pear. But that only proves that the published menus are rarely 100 percent accurate.
