In the jmc Office Lunch Module, you can disallow purchases for entire areas, such as Lunch A La Cartes, or specific items, like milk or pastries. This feature allows families to restrict their students from purchasing extras or specific food items in the lunchroom based on their preferences or dietary restrictions.
