Global 'Dead-End' Public School Lunch Menu URL Drift

This page measures how often public school districts in the UK and US remove or break links to past school lunch menus. It tracks the percentage of districts with non-functional menu pages and the median time since their last known working link. These menus are vital for food policy research, revealing nutritional trends, allergen information, and regional dietary patterns over time. Without consistent access to historical data, researchers and the public lose a key source of transparency about school meal standards.
