DD goes to a lovely little nursery, they have always had a chef on site who produces fresh cooked lunches for them every day, they have a good varied menu, use a lot of organic food, everyone very happy.
The owners have acquired 2 new nurseries in Guildford area (we are in London nr Richmond). They have decided to employ the chef they have now plus another and base them in Guildford in a bigger kitchen, then cook all the food there and transport to the nurseries in heated vans.
I am very miffed about this, surely the food will lose nutrients between Guildford and London. What if there is a traffic jam? It could be in there for hours. It can't be as good for them as cooking on site can it?
As she has a good hot lunch currently + light tea at nursery, I only give her a very light supper at home. Am tempted to say I will give her packed lunches if they persist with this approach and then give her a good fresh homecooked meal in the evening (she is picked up at 4pm so plenty of time)
Does anyone have any opinions on this? How do other nurseries do this?

Any nutritionists or similar here? DD's nursery changing the way they feed them and I'm NOT happy... (and how does YOUR nursery do it?)
