I don't know about UK schools, but nobody ever told me at school eating and cooking tips.I've had awful experiences in school's canteens, both in public and private catholic schools. Trying to shovel in the throat of kids bad but officially healthy food is a sure fire way to make the kids absolutely love Mars bars. I remember the vast differences between say the canteen apples and peaches and the one bought at the farmer's market or the "fish" they served me and the trouts bought from the fishy guy near the river. Of course the advertising has a big slice on the problem, but it's also a general perception that is wrong.Heck, even I being in Turin, had a wrong idea about pizza. Then I found a tiny pizza parlor where the cook was from Naples that changed the idea about what proper pizza is. When I read about what UK and USA people think what is Italian style or typical Italian food I find that is really different on what we eat and what is considered Mediterranean versus actual regional foods.</blockquote>
