Yahoo Finance These Morrisons Family Food Boxes Will Feed Four People For A Week For Just £30
Last week, the country was in disbelief at the state of the Free School Meal boxes that had been put together for vulnerable families by private companies. These companies were supposed to be providing £30 worth of food in the boxes, but many appeared to have cost just £5 to put together, leaving us to wonder, where was the rest of the money going?
(I think we all know where it was going really…)
Footballer and poverty campaigner Marcus Rashford took to Twitter to show his disgust at the boxes’ contents; saying that they were “Just not good enough.”
As well as Marcus, Jack Monroe also took to social media to slam the parcels.
After the parcels received a lot of press coverage, the chef and cookbook author has now broken the wonderful news that eligible families should now receive vouchers instead of these inexcusable food parcels.

Well, Morrisons has now put those boxes to shame by launching its own family food boxes, which will feed a family of four for a whole week. And, yup – you guessed it… they cost just £30.
The brilliant boxes include simple meal recipes, plus all the ingredients needed to make those meals.
Those recipes are:
Spaghetti And Meatballs
Chilli Con Carne
Veggie Curry
Cheesy Leek and Mushroom Pie
Warming Sausage And Butterbean Bake
Yum!
You can order these boxes from the Morrisons website, and the best part is, if you subscribe to getting them regularly, you’ll actually only end up paying £28.50. That means you’ll be paying just £1.50 a head for the meals.
Nice one, Morrisons.
