Re: How bad is the credit crunch really affecting people?

I have to disagree with Mancie.

All the gathered evidence supports the claim that the poorest sections of society spend by far the greatest pecentage of their income on food, but it is food with the least nutritional value.

House of Commons - Environment, Food and Rural Affairs - Ninth Report

Not passing judgement, just making an observation, and it is a generalisation.

Might be because children are being taught the wrong subjects in Food Technology lessons, when really the best lesson they could be taught would be to shown how to cook cheaply and nutritionally, starting from scratch with fresh ingredients.
