I disagree about food fetishes. If you can't cook and don't know where food comes from and don't understand about diet and nutrition you're far more likely to end up with kids who will expect food to come out of packets. Every TV programme I've seen about improving the finances and/or diet of poorer families has found them living on ready meals and take-aways and often a different one for each member of the family cos they won't eat the same things.

Elf and safety and SATS means that children are not taught basic nutrition and basic cooking. The DS classrooms went the way of the school grounds and playing fields. But at least they could teach children how to produce nutritious meals without involving dangerous activities like cooking
It is not just the poor who open packets rather than cook. who do you think buys the bags of mixed salad leaves, the pots of olives and sun dried tomatoes and the bags of microwave new potatoes and ready cooked chickens?
might be healthier than a supermarket frozen diner or a kebab but it isn’t cooking a healthy meal either. It is just opening a different type of packet.
