Last year there was plenty in the news about Jamie Oliver and his 'Feed me better' campaign.
This year, there's almost nothing about school food in the news. From what I remember, he got plenty of politicians to make distinctly qualified promises to improve school food and, sadly, was pretty much fobbed out and 'politicked' into beliveing that he'd acheived something.
Today, after reading an article online about the same problem in America, it made me wonder what food is on offer in schools throughout the UK:

This would be a great place for anyone who finds it to let us know what food is on offer in your kids school and whether you think it's good enough. So, if you've just found your way here from the front page, Google or an email from a friend, please sign up - it's free and we don't give out your details to *anyone* else.

Which is saying that the number of pupils having school lunches is reducing slightly. Some of this will be parents pulling them out because of the negative coverage, but how much is because the kids wont eat the healthier food? It would be interesting to know.
