This is Boris's latest idea to help revive the high street. If you purchase a meal at participating restaurants, then the government will pay half of the bill, up to a max of £10. Alcohol is not included. I'm in the supermarket cafe for my early morning coffee ( normally £1.45 ), and today it only cost £0.50 (I know, that got me as well ). I didn't intend to stay for long, but I'm tempted to try poached eggs with smashed avocado at half price.
So what do you think? All of the McDonalds are participating, and we know that their ultra-processed foods and sugary drinks contribute to insulin resistance. Should we be encouraging people to eat more of these products, or should they be excluded for health reasons?
