We’re in an obesity epidemic and most people don’t know how to cook even very basic meals.

Make space for it, squish other classes if you need. Make it mandatory, everyone has to take it. Maybe even ongoing through multiple grades.

Edit: Rice, beans, and even basic meats are cheap. To eat healthy you don’t need your meal to be 100% Bell peppers and tomatoes.

    Processed meat, yeah. Which is full of shit.

    I can go and get a bag of chips and two packs of pies/pasties/cheap steak for maybe £6.

    Doing it properly with fresh veg will cost a minimum of of 3/4 times as much.

      Ground beef is cheap. Actual processed meat like sausages, deli meat, bacon, is expensive.
