I praise the leadership you demonstrate, Mallika, in sharing with the school what's wrong, and offering to help. A lot of people complain and don't want to sweat to be part of the solution, so I was pleased (and, coming from you, not that surprised) that you proposed to help the school.
Brilliant piece and really shocking that schools are doing this! One of the reasons to make cakes at home is so that they don't have UPFs in them. Wish my daughter was still at school – would happily get stuck right in! There needs to be a campaign to make schools UPF-free!
Totally agree! I had someone leave a comment on Insta saying that she was making the same at year 7, 25 years ago. Surely we should know better in over two decades!
How on earth is this possible – they see the results of this every day, both the physical ones, and all the results of the brain not getting what it needs to develop properly!
Some great stuff Mallika i hadn't thought about volunteering at the school for my Grandchildren. I agree with you about Eddie (marmite) but I think he does speak a lot of sense although I wouldn't/don't follow his diet as such, the most valuable part is checking the labels on Supermarket shelves and putting back the ones that have loads of ingredients, one ingrediant cooking is a mantra I try to follow.

Ha ha thanks Guillaume. I really need to stop poking my nose in but this is so important! We should all get stuck in...

If you have time, I'd highly encourage it Shekhar! Great to hear you concur about Eddie. He;s a lovely man with the best intentions, as are his family
