The Ministry of Education in China recently expressed a cautious attitude towards the issue of "pre-made meals in schools", which has attracted widespread attention.
A senior official from the ministry told the Xinhua News Agency on Friday that school food safety and nutritional health are important issues related to students' well-being.
The official was quoted as saying that due to the lack of unified standards, certification systems and traceability systems for pre-made meals, promoting their use in schools should be treated with much caution and the meals are not suitable to be introduced to schools at the moment.
