    BRITAIN’S TOP 10 BAD FOOD BELIEFS
    * Eating is about refuelling, not pleasure. A part of life’s routine, just like going to the lavatory.
    * Home cooking takes too long. Successful Britons buy ready-made food instead.
    * Food is not important. Pretty much everything else in life matters more.
    * A dining table is a redundant item of furniture.
    * The single most important thing to know about food is what it costs.
    * There is no point in giving children good food. They won’t appreciate it.
    * There is no such thing as bad foods, only bad diets.
    * British supermarkets stock such great food, there is no need to shop else
