46: Student Snacks That Drive Teachers Crazy

Do you love snacks as much as teachers do? Tune into this deliciously entertaining episode of Teachers Off Duty where Lauran, Tell, Bri, and Gabe delve into the delectable world of "teacher snacks". Ever wondered what your teachers stash in their desks? Tell starts off the snack fest confessing his love for candy, while Gabe, mid-conversation with Lauran, reaches over to snag some Cheetos. No one said teachers can't have fun, right? Gabe shares a relatable moment, guiltily munching on Oreos during his students' test. He also reveals his odd fondness for 'grandpa candy', sparking off a trip down memory lane about Lauran's grandma at church. Is project-based learning a ploy to feast on preferred snacks? Hear what Tell has to say on that. But it's not all fun and games - apparently, teachers at Tell's school can only have clear liquids. Discover the hilarious tale of forgotten hidden coffee that followed this rule. In a twist of irony, while Gabe can gulp down coffee, Tell reveals why he avoids it. Hint: It involves an awkward conversation with the principal. The conversation turns serious when Gabe emphasizes the importance of letting kids eat breakfast and ensuring they're well-nourished. But it's soon back to laughs with Tell's amusing story about "Pirate's Booty" snacks and an intriguing discussion on developing allergies later in life. Enjoy a delicious round of 'Good or Garbage with Gabe' that focuses on Chocolate Milk Fridays. Here's the kicker: Apparently, the FDA is considering a chocolate milk ban. Can school life survive this? Bri shares her strict 'no school lunch' policy, while Lauran has a surprising take. This leads to a fiery debate about the quality of school lunches and a nostalgic trip down memory lane involving plate-sized chocolate chip cookies and Otis Spunkmeyer treats. From Gabe's food shoutouts to Lauran's innovative dinner dice for decision-making, there's a feast of food fun. The episode wraps up with Bri's funny tale about a student-run Instagram account that crowned her the 'eating champ'.
