During the project, Wu was a teacher in the Chicago public school system and worked at Haugan Elementary. The idea for came to Sarah Wu when she didn"t have time to pack her own lunch. After buying lunch from her school"s cafeteria, Wu was shocked to see what her students were being served.
She then came up with the idea to eat lunch from her cafeteria, every day for a year, and document it through an online blog.
Each day during the 2010 school year, Wu lined up with students and bought her lunch. She would then take it back to her room, snap a photo of it on her desk, and upload the photo to her blog.
