“She made absolutely no effort to sound nice when she told me in an extremely rude and annoyed tone to stop packing my son with such ‘disgusting and inappropriate’ lunches.”

The mother said she was “shocked” when she told her this because she and the teacher had always had a “very friendly relationship” until then.

“She added that the lunches I pack for my son are very distracting to the other students and have an unpleasant odor,” the woman wrote.

The woman added that while she knows the lunches she made aren’t the healthiest, they are what he likes and eats.

It wasn’t long before thousands shared their comments on what they thought of the teacher – many saying they were shocked.

“Report her to the director. Her comments about your son’s eating are “disgusting” and “have an obnoxious tone, also called a cough cough racist tone,” one person wrote.

‘Precisely. Your son’s eating is completely normal. For a five year old. Your family’s food is normal. The teacher is the asshole because he doesn’t recognize that.’

But some thought the teacher might have a point.

“I love kimchi and eat it a lot at home. Mama used to make it as a kid. But even I have to admit it’s pretty sharp,” one woman wrote.

Another added, “The kimchi blue cheese combo is probably funky as hell after mostly sitting in a lunch box.”
