No cheeseburgers  they would go bankrupt': pupils reject plan to cut fatty foods from lunch menus
"Wednesday's menu includes a main meal of sausages (Cumberland pork and Glamorgan vegetarian) plus mashed potato, with caramelised onion gravy, roasted carrots and broccoli. There's also a pasta dish, chicken meatballs in tomato sauce and jacket potato with baked beans."
"Under government plans, schools will no longer be able to offer grab and go options like sausage rolls and pizza every day and deep fried food will be banned completely."
"The plan is to cut out food and drinks high in fat, salt and sugar, welcomed by chefs and campaigners including Jamie Oliver, Emma Thompson and Dimbleby."
Richard Challoner school in New Malden serves a variety of nutritious meals during lunchtime, including sausages, pasta dishes, and a well-stocked salad bar. The menu excludes deep-fried foods, chocolate bars, and fizzy drinks. Recent government plans will further restrict unhealthy food options in schools to combat childhood obesity. Chefs and campaigners support these changes, which aim to improve the nutritional quality of school meals while still offering appealing desserts like chocolate mousse and banoffee pie.
