From the nutritional quality of the food served to the dishes it's served in, to the portion sizes and ratios of simple carbs to complex carbs to protein.

The American school lunch is the only one using styrofoam plates and plastic cutlery.

Countries like Kenya, Honduras, and Ghana are serving avocado, porridge, and rice, respectively.  It may not be much, but at least they aren't eating processed foods, no access to hot dogs, chips, candy bars, chicken nuggets, or a frozen fish stick.  I often hear the argument that some people cannot afford to eat organic, free range, etc, and I agree completely, but the money they spend on McD's or Kraft Dinner and a case of soda, could be spent more wisely on a bag of dry beans, an apple, and a can of tuna.  It's all about making smart choices and making the best of what we have.
