I am so glad I'm not 9 today.  When I was in grade school the lunch bell signified "let the trading begin."  My Mom probably still thinks I liked Hostess fruit pies.  But I only asked for her to pack them in my Bonanza themed lunch pail because I could trade them for anything I wanted.  Fortunately, I liked healthy food and most kids wanted the junk food.  For a chemically  preserved gelatinous filled artificially flavored deep fried pie, I could get a roast turkey sandwich plus an apple and a banana.
