Interesting view Steve. Our kids can chose between shcool meals and packed lunches and often vary which option they have. With packed lunches we can control what they have in their diet, with dinners, they choose on the day. If chips was on the menu every day I'm sure they would have that for "ease" and speed so thay could get out and "play".
Our eldest, having just moved up to high school, had pasta bolognaise for the first 3 weeks, until we found out she was too scared to ask for anything else!
Peer pressure can also have a big impact on their choice during the school day.
