An evaluation of student meals has found that close to a third of the assessed meals are not fit to be eaten every day. A larger share of nutritionally unsuitable meals was recorded among fast food providers. Places where the extra payment students had to make was the lowest, or where there was no extra charge at all, also accounted for more of the unsuitable meals. The findings suggest that the cheap and fast food options within the student meal offering tend to perform worst on nutritional value.
