lunch for a victorian
I'm not and expert on Italy, but when visiting my father's small village in Northern Italy, my elementary and 'junior high' age cousins came home for lunch. If I recall correctly, they actually attended school Mon-Sat and their school day ended at lunch time so they'd come home and be done for the day.
I know some basics (I admit I learned them from the American Girl books) but not too much, here's what I know: The kids in farming towns would bring simple stuff like sausage, cheese, apple, etc in a wooden container. The kids in cities would bring a pail (or I guess the rich ones brought something fancier) with "normal" lunch food like at home, I think stuff like hard-boiled eggs, apple or berry dumpling, meat dumpling, and other common 1800s food.
The National School Lunch Program only started in 1946, but there were a lot of scattered programs before then. During the Great Depression, government-purchased school lunches for children who would have gone hungry were a great way to help farmers with agricultural surpluses without inflating prices.
