This is odd because they are *actually* unhealthy.

Here's a thread about some fascinating proposed food regulation which is very likely to be blocked by the food industry...🧵

While the Gov.'s response to the excellent @HLFoodObesity report was disappointingly lacking in commitments, we're pleased the @UKHouseofLords will be continuing the debate today. Ahead of this, take a look again at our #RecipeforChange response 👉https://t.co/6HmZjc1VzM

SERIOUSLY?? 🤔

Sincerely hoping today's @thetimes story that @educationgovuk is being put under pressure to axe school meals for 4-7 yr olds is NOT actually on the table.

Why introduce breakfast clubs but take away lunch? @breeallegretti
