It was not so much healthy food as proper food with no nasty additives, with so much of schools catering outsourced the quality of the ingredients (if you can call Turkey Twizzlers ingredients) has taken a hit.
If kids were given basic good grub such as Shepherds pie, Lasagne, pasta it would be a step forward.
There's no way to avoid the fact that if you outsource something then quality becomes a cost factor that never gets justified. Outsource-rs work down to the lowest price, in-sourcing generally makes the best of a given budget.
