Meal Deals in Wales will be subject to bans on certain foods from 2025.

As someone who used to sometimes buy a lunch meal deal from M&S or Boots, which never seemed that unhealthy to (perhaps uneducated!) me, consisting of a prawn mayonnaise on oat bread sandwich, crisps (!) and water or fruit juice, I never felt guilty.

Are meal deals a real health problem or is this too much interfering by a Nanny State?

my husband makes my sandwiches. I have never made his for him unless it is on a weekend. He makes the lunches as he gets up the earliest

Just for a bit of male/female balance smile

Mine makes my coffees, teas, ice drinks. He's also better with salad greens, chopping tomatoes, dicing veg -- daily green salads.

Fever Tree mixes contain no artificial sweeteners, neither do some other makes.

But many contain Fructose (fruit sugar) which is not a healthy option!
