The 9-Year-Old Food Critic
Remember way back to your school cafeteria lunches. Not terribly excited? Wish you could've had an outlet to express your opinion about the sad state of school lunches?
One enterprising 9-year-old grade school student named Martha Payne did just that. She launched NeverSeconds blog as her own Yelp, with a little help from her dad.

Today I had vegetable soup and sausages with roast potatoes and salad. The lady on the radio said I had a choice everyday of mini tomatoes and watercress, but I have never seen them. My soup tasted of mainly carrot but i am not sure. I had three wee roast potatoes which were a bit small and the sausages are very different to the ones I get at home. They are very crispy on the outside and the texture is like a baked potato.

Martha's hardwork is paying off: after some pressure from the media, her school is now allowing unlimited salad, fruit and bread.
