Just as Mark began sharing a list of the top school lunch snacks, Kelly looked horrified and admitted it was all “very triggering” for her.
Seeing her extreme reaction, Mark asked: “Did you have a not-so-tasty lunch?”
“You know these stories,” she quickly shot back before agreeing to tell him again.
Kelly shared: “My mom would make our school lunches the night before…but you truly haven’t lived through the horror of a school lunch until one of my mom’s.

“She would make always her signature – cream cheese and jelly, grape jelly, on white bread.”
Aside from not liking the pairing of ingredients, the Live host explained that the sandwich would also always get “mushy” after sitting overnight.
As if that all weren’t enough to make the meal unappetizing, Kelly added that her mom “would always put the paper bag next to the half-sliced, unwrapped raw onion” in the fridge.
By the time lunch rolled around, the actress was left with a “cream cheese and jelly, onion-scented, slime sandwich.”

After Kelly finished reminding Mark about the terrible recurring event from her childhood, the two went on to finally discuss the list of top school lunches.
Before wrapping up and moving on to the next topic, though, Kelly once again thought back to her own lunches.
She finished up the segment, saying: “Yeah, every time we talk about school lunches here I get upset. I get traumatized.”
Leaving everyone with one last comment, she insisted of the cream cheese and jelly sandwiches: “Those two things don’t go together. Why not peanut butter?!”
Live with Kelly and Mark is currently airing pre-taped, partially-new episodes.
The talk show's new season begins on Tuesday, September 5.
A new trailer for the upcoming season was released earlier this week, and fans noticed the program appeared to have a new logo.
