Tuesday, March 1, is the entry into force of the obligation to indicate the origin of meat served in school canteens. Pierre-Yves Rommelaere is a chef in a college in Aude and a member of the collective Les pieds dans le plat, the first national network of technical experts for organic-local collective catering. He answers questions from students in the CM2 class at the Eustache-Varet elementary school in Violaines in the Hauts-de-France region.

Jade speaks with this first question: “I eat in the school canteen every day. Where do you buy the meat we eat there and who makes it?” and “Why will it be compulsory to indicate the origin of the meat?” Ylan would like to know if“there are already had dramas because of the origin of meat in the past?” Zelie, as for her wonders : “Who decides on menus in the canteen?” “I don’t always want to eat meat. Why aren’t there more vegetarian dishes in the canteen?”she adds.

We hear everywhere that organic is good for your health. Why is it not mandatory to provide completely organic meals in the canteen?
