Opposition adds a sour note to fruit scheme Tommy Sheridan, Scottish Socialist Party MSP, who last year mounted an unsuccessful attempt for free meals for all children at state schools, dismissed the executive move as too little, too late.
"Isn't this a universal provision - and isn't that what New Labour objected to?" he said.
"Their other attempts to limit the kids to burger and chips or pizza twice a week is a joke. Only a free, universal and nutritionally-balanced meal at lunchtime for all school pupils will begin to turn Scotland's diet around," said Mr Sheridan, MSP for Glasgow region.
"These are only guidelines which are not enforceable by law."
