  My wife had the misfortune of receiving Carillion "food" whilst at the JR a year and a half ago. I would often get phone calls with her in tears asking me to bring food with me when I visited because she was so hungry.
  
  Once I tried said "food" and have to say it was cold, tasteless and had a strange grey pallor. Oh and the processed meat (probably mechanically extracted) formed into "steaks" was something to behold.
  
  Now our kids have to look forward to this slop. What did they do to deserve that?

  I was in the West Wing last year. and the meals were M&S ready prep standard. I had a large steaming hot shepherds pie, and also remember a very nice Vindaloo off of the Halal menu, and with the missus smuggling me in mini bottles of wine to go with it I have no complaints about the food or service at all. But back to the schools, the council are being clever because with more of them becoming academies they can pull out of the school meals scheme so the council are protecting our money, well done OCC on this one."
