You're right. It's better than free. It sets those kids up for a healthier life, making them more well rounded into adulthood. It's a highly returning investment in our future.

How much will the children have to pay each time they get a lunch? Or is it more like a subscription where they pay per month or something?

Not shit Sherlock, taxes would pay for it. Better to have our money feeding fat kids than buying more bombs for the IDF.
