First and foremost I totally agree with you. I think it a case of the price is based on value of numbers and quite often meals or the plain or cheap seats type packaged verities. I don’t know if School cooks have autonomy when purchasing food stuffs are not but the stuff they do get must be subsidised in some way. My son costs me £10.00 - £15.00 per week and most of it goes on pop, crisps, bacon or sausage barn cakes and the like. Again payment for this is based on a swipe card type system. I’m not too sure about Jamie Oliver’s motives, but the fact that this has been highlighted nationally can only be good for the health of our kids. I would personally encourage people to sign his petition as posted else where by purplelass
