Lunchlady Doris
|
In the television series The Simpsons, Lunchlady Doris (voiced by Doris Grau) is an overweight, middle-aged, and laconic worker at the Springfield Elementary School cafeteria. It was occasionally intimated that she and Groundskeeper Willie are romantically involved. She has served many distasteful things to the students, including whole beef hearts, horse testicles ("more testicles means more iron"), Grade-F meat ("Mostly circus animals, some filler"), rat's milk, ground newspapers, and ground-up gym mats ("There's very little meat in these gym mats.")
After Doris Grau's death in 1995, the character of Lunchlady Doris was retired out of respect. However, Doris has since been seen in crowds and groups of other faculty members. It was implied in one episode that she is the mother of the Squeaky Voiced Teen.
