Burgers (chicken or beef) will come with mayonnaise or cheese on it (IF indicated in the food description), but the tomato and lettuce will be wrapped separately and the mustard, ketchup and relish come in individual packets so they can be added if desired.
    In addition to the lunch meals and additions, Danby’s has added the option of ordering mini meals.  Mini meals do not come with sides.  However, mini meals can be ordered any week, alone or with other items. Please note that no modifications can be made to the mini meals.
    For Danby’s orders: Danby’s lunches can be ordered for the weeks you wish to participate. You are not required to select a meal every week.

    Our Thursday Pizza Lunches are delivered from Jo-Jo’s Pizza in Kanata.  Jo-Jo’s only use high quality ingredients for all menu items, the dough is fresh and the sauce is always made in house. Jo-Jo’s will offer cheese, pepperoni, vegetarian and gluten free (cheese only) slices.
    For pizza orders: the quantity and type must remain the same for each week of the session.
