Ds is yr 7 and has just started food tech. I’m now in possession of a shopping list for ingredients for this week, which will cost me over a fiver, and will create a meal that he won’t even entertain due to containing onions which he can’t stand! Not to mention the raw ingredients festering in the bottom of his school bag all day before they even get to the lesson. Grrr..... just seems like a total waste of money, and, as they’re using a bloody jar of Dolmio (a small jar, which I know they don’t sell at Aldi, so means a special trip to the co-op), not really teaching them how to make a sauce anyway. I know it’s a “life skill”, but I begrudge paying an extra £5 on my shopping bill every week (only normally spend £50ish for an entire week as on a tight budget) when the chances are it’ll end up in the bin anyway!
