I'm thinking about the added cost to many elderly and families with food costs going up it really will be for many heating or eating 🥲

I see the DfE has a group looking at the 2013/4 food based standards, which is very much needed, but I really do hope that the people who actually deliver the meals on the frontline are consulted. I would also like to know how they will be monitored @lindsaygrahamuk.bsky.social @aajolley.bsky.social

I can't believe it's 15 years of @SAfoodforlife catering mark and 22 years since Lizzy Vann and myself took an idea to the late Peter Melchett called Food for Life so proud of everyone I've worked with, every school meals catering teams I visited it's been an honour 💙 @PrueLeith

I want my grandchildren to see family farmers, green fields, cows, and sheep in those fields. For all children to know where their food comes from and how it's produced, this shouldn't be a fairy story it should be a reality for the next generation, NOT LAB GROWN MEAT @lindsaygrahamuk.bsky.social

Yes, thanks for that. I'm really going to try this. I think the grandchildren will love it

This looks lovely, Lucy could use sausage meat it would be cheaper, maybe crumble it first and fry off 😀
