I tend to go along with a lot of what you say. Strangely enough, this program was being reported on Sky TV Sunday when I arrived at lunch and I was told all about it. My anger was reserved for parents who objected to changing their kids' food from whatever bad stuff they were eating at home. But then, I realize that there are a lot of people old enough to be parents that don't actually know anything about food. With cooking disappearing worldwide from school clbuttes, where will any of them learn? We could pick and choose when I was a kid. The menus were posted Monday morning and we could pay for tickets for days when they had what we would eat. My packed lunch was pretty good-- mother being an attentive amateur dietician and a good cook. I loved a lot of what we were fed and asked my mother to get some of the recipes. The food was CHEAP, although it did include some government surplus foods that I suppose are rare in the UK. That was mostly dairy products and flour, for which they didn't even have to pay wholesale price. As I recall, there were children for whom this was the only real meal they got. They were given tickets to eat, and I was glad, because if they brought food it was hopelessly the food of poverty-- cold bread with lard? There's no point in whipping ignorant parents. Teach them. How? I don't know.
