Schools in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, are putting custard back on the menu after two school children started a petition to stop the desserts from being scrapped.

In April, Aberdeenshire Council said it would change elementary school menus to meet the Scottish government's new nutrition guidelines. The guidelines say there should be no more than 15 grams of sugar in desserts served at elementary school, and children should only be allowed three desserts per week.

So instead of custard and ice cream, kids would be given other choices — all part of a plan to get children to eat less sugar and have more fruit and vegetables.

But 10-year-old Angus Beverly and 11-year-old William Dibb — both students at Rhynie Primary School — decided to fight for their favorite desserts.

They wrote a letter to Aberdeenshire Council that said the desserts made by their school cook, Heather Moir, were "the best in the world."

"They are part of a balanced diet for us and we know that Mrs. Moir reduces the sugar content as much as possible."

Every student and all the staff at the school also signed the letter, including Mrs. Moir. And in the end, the petition was successful — not just for Rhynie Primary but for all schools in Aberdeenshire.

👉Summary
四月時，亞伯丁郡議會宣布將更改小學的菜單，以符合蘇格蘭政府新的營養準則。 該準則指出，小學供應的甜點中不能含有超過15克的糖，且應該讓孩童每週只吃三次甜點。孩子們將獲得蛋奶凍和冰淇淋以外的選擇，以減少糖分攝取量。但是有兩個小學生卻不樂見這項改變，決定爭取他們最喜歡的甜點。他們寫了一封信給議會，並讓校內每位學生及教職員工都在信上簽署。最後請願還真的成功了！
