Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has hit out at parents unhappy about the new school lunches saying they should just “go make a Marmite sandwich and put an apple in the bag”.
It comes after multiple complaints about the lunches, including the untimeliness of delivery; unsealed containers leaving food open to contamination; burnt food and lunches not turning up.
Luxon told Newstalk ZB’s Mike Hosking if parents continue to be dissatisfied with the lunches, they should pack them themselves.
“If you really are unhappy with it, for God’s sake, go make a Marmite sandwich and put an apple in a bag just like you and I had.”
