Fair point. If you're sure that meat will be better, then it's ultimately your decision. I just thought that vegetarian would give ours an aim, and might make us stand out over the other team when we're pitching it. But it's up to you, you're the PM.
Emma what are your thoughts? |

I do not want you to feel like i am not taking your decision on board because i am. If we go with Vegetarian, yes we do get a true aim but we will not be providing for a bigger market so we will get less money.

I was thinking more along the lines of a cheap but quality three course meal.
So Starters - Bread and Soup Main - Lasagne/Pasta Dessert - Cheesecake/Sponge Cake |

Okay, so I take it we're going with meat (and don't worry Naruto, I didn't feel you weren't taking my idea on board - you had sound reasoning for preferring meat, and I had sound reasoning for preferring vegetarian. And as you're PM, it's up to you - no problem with me! I don't want to be one of those team members that makes things hard for the leader to take control.)
I think we should do something alternative - not necessarily a traditional meat product, but something that is going to make people want our brand over and above something else. Maybe a new kind of meat pie? |

Message from Lord Stuart:
'You can make either a standard meal, kid's meal or include special meals such as meals for vegetarians, lactose intolerant.' That means that we can't do all of them, it's a choice. I think I'm right in thinking that Naruto has ruled out vegetarian/lactose intolerant as that's very specific, so we need to choose between standard and kids. My view is that doing standard means that we might not screw it up so badly, but if we did kids, it might be a risk worth taking, and if it paid off it could be fantastic for us. |

Your meal can have three courses - like they have on airlines just now with the different sections on the trays.

I would say Standard because kids can eat the standard whereas the adults can not eat the kids? But i would not mind doing kids so i am ok with both.

I'm happy with the three-course meal. Naruto had the bread and soup/lasagne/cheesecake idea. We need something that is going to make us stand out to the airline though. That could do it I suppose...
