letter home for kale "crisps"

Wtf, dd6 has a letter about the schools healthy lunch box policy after sending in kale crisps (raw, vegan and air dried). They are just kale and sunflower seeds with some BBQ flavours (parprika and tamari). Confused

My daughter (7) was told she couldn't eat something in her lunchbox because it looked like it had chocolate in it.

Yet on the school lunch menu, they had 'chocolate krispie square'!

Kale is GOPPING

if I get it in a vegbox I give it to the dogs. Then clear the area and get the febreze ready

Kale gives me disgusting wind. Perhaps your child is similarly affected and they don't wish for the classroom to stink all afternoon.

You may have a (what you perceive) healthy diet op, but your obsession with food to the extent of posting endless weird stuff on the Internet is far from normal.

How did I miss this gem??

It has everything from forged notes, facism, kale to air dried food.

coughs bullshit

Another food tale from op

My ds took a Tesco sausage roll and a packet of cheesy wotsits for his lunch yesterday. No letter home from school because they don't give a flying fuck what teenagers put in their packed lunch.

Obviously, having read this thread, I realise the error of his ways and will suggest that instead he takes in a salad of raw organic lentils, lovingly grown by nuns in the foothills of the Dolomites. That should please the lunchbox police.

Fuck, I'd rather eat the note Grin Grin Grin

Where do you get a kale crisp? Never heard of it!

GlitzAndGigglesx · 28/03/2015 09:56

How the flying fuck are they filling anyway?!

When ds1 (19) was in P1 the class teacher got all the children to open their lunch boxes in class and commented on the food they had brought. The outcry from the parents was huge. I have had a child in the school ever since and have never had any policing of lunches. The only rule appears to be no soup or hot food.

OP was this letter sent to just you or all parents? It may just be a general letter due to the amount that other children are bringing in.

TaraBoomDeAy · 28/03/2015 12:14

Hilarious thread. Grin

OP, I don't think you need to be too outraged about this. I would have just dropped them a note. It's not important really. They may not want any crisps at all so that it's easier to enforce. I suppose that is a bit OTT but I wouldn't bother getting angry about it.

ps how's your flute playing Blush

Kale is DS2's favourite veg. He doesn't like kale crisps though.

Ivegotthree · 28/03/2015 12:33

Kale is disgusting in every form

Salmotrutta · 28/03/2015 15:38

Kale is not disgusting!

It's great in soups and stir fry.

And jammed with anti-oxidants too.

So there.

toffeeboffin · 29/03/2015 14:19

You're working class, aren't you? Grin

It's lovely straight from the garden.
