Marmite - schools either love it or hate it

marmite2.jpgEarlier this week it was reported in the news that a group of overly frettful parents with kids at St Leonards Mayfield School in East Sussex had written to Jamie asking for help with school meals only to be told that he could do nothing to help as catering there was 'superb'.

Today, another kids' food angst story in the paper, as one school in Cardiganshire in west Wales bans Marmite for children's breakfasts - slamming it as too salty.

We all know Marmite has salt in it, but you only put a tiny bit on a piece of toast and if the rest of your diet is balanced I'm convinced no harm will come of it. Surely the generations of Marmite babies who love the brown sticky stuff are testament to this?
