..I appreciate what Jamie Oliver tried to do but in my experience unfortunately the majority of children/parents would rather eat meals or have their children eat meals less healthier because then they are assured they will actually eat them..and many children are not persuaded at home to try vegetables/pasta/rice so they will never eat it at school...sad

Their parents should encourage the kids to eat more fruit and veg.
