Worried DS won't eat anything at nursery on Monday

DS has lunch at nursery every day. He's dairy intolerant and a little bit of a fussy eater on top of that but I'm not allowed to send him with a packed lunch. So some days he comes home having only had toast, apple juice and a plate of veg. On Monday the whole school except the nursery are going on a trip so there won't be any hot food at all. Only cold sandwiches, juice & fruit. There are no sandwiches DS will eat (can't have cheese and won't touch tuna or egg). The nursery will not let me send him with any food even on this one occassion. They said they will give him bread & fruit and try to find a banana for him.

Is it unreasonable for me to be upset by this and expect them to let me send him with food just this once???

He doesn't get home until 4 on a Monday and that's going to be a very long day for him if he's hardly had any lunch. I don't know whether to just leave it, to make a fuss or to say nothing but just pick him up early and give him lunch myself.

Well, it was nice to get so much support but it turns out he was fine. Apparently they have some kind of vegetarian lunch meat that he loved in a sandwich! Why oh why do I have to have a DS who won't eat nice things like chicken or salmon on mince like his sister but loves sausage rolls and vegetarian salami!

BTW - americantrish - have you seen the thread under living overseas looking for american mumsnetters - thought you might want to pop in and say hello.
