I don't know why the government/local education authorities bother. Following Jamie Oliver's campaign, schools started providing healthier food; a few months later, we see mums taking orders off their kids for greaseburgers and fish & chips for their little darlings' lunch. Wasn't it originally a public outcry that forced schools to provide healthy food in the first place? A case of damned if you do, damned if you don't....
