Nationwide Chip Ban

[The Late One]

It is not just at SUFC where you will not be able to buy chips soon...


The new E.C Directive (Balanced Nutritional Act January 2010) Applicable to Outside Catering - the purpose being to ensure Customers have a more balanced diet - and not just chips alone when attending events such as these.

Only applies to Mobile Caterers - so doesn't apply to your Local Fish and Chip shop or Mc Donald's etc.

£1000 minimum fine for Non Compliant Sellers and Buyers! - so watch over your shoulder if you try to buy Chips alone.

There is the likelihood this will drive the chips business "underground" and onto the black market.

Thes are sad days for chip lovers

Another example of the E.C. interfering in our everday lives.


Basically you can no longer buy chips on their own from mobile caterers without breaking this law, no mention on onions....yet !!

I wish the eu and there silly ****ing rules would just do one.

 

[ldnfatso]

[Cricko]

What a load of Bollocks...I am fed up with being told what I can and can't do by some divvy in the EU.

:thump:

 

[canveyshrimper]

what about Onions?

I think he's still injured but is hopeful of being available for the first test against Bangladesh later this month. :dim:

Can't find anything about this on the Net - do you have a link?

 

[Che's Left Foot]

You are seriously having a larf

 

[southend4ever]

what about Onions?

You asked for them all in yours a few years back - there is still a national shortage I would presume.

There is a 2006 act of that name, but all it talks about is exagerated nutritional claims on packaging.

Daily Mail/Daily Express ******** again IMHO.

 

[Jordy]

Gotta be a wind-up

 

[Lester Bangs]

Better be a wind up, if I want to eat just chips I'll eat just chips and no **** will tell me otherwise.

So annoyed at these 'Do good directives'.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Surely people don't believe crap like this?

 

[Strykr]

I wish the eu and there silly ****ing rules would just do one.

even though this thread has to be a wind up, i concur with your view!
