A mum's fuming complaint has gone viral on social media, after photos emerged of her daughters meagre school meal.
The offending sandwich was described as "basically empty", and served at a school in Pontypool, the Daily Record reports. This news came just days after another pupil was given a lunch of just three potato wedges and some beans.
Donna Jones spoke to WalesOnline about the situation, and said she was furious when her daughter sent her a photo of her lunch - showing the tiny amount of filling in the baguette. The photo was taken at West Monmouth School on September 26.

The mum said: "She sent me a picture and said 'mum, this is my lunch' and that there was hardly any filling in it.
"I thought 'is that what my money is paying for'? I wouldn't serve that to my children myself.
"I just feel that someone couldn't be bothered and just put a tiny bit of ham in."
The school meal cost between £2.50 and £3, and the mum made a complaint to Torfaen County Borough Council. However, she is yet to receive a reply as of this week.
She continued: "I think school dinners are outsourced. I contacted the council and said the sandwich was basically empty and that I just didn't think it was substantial in terms of portion size."
Ms Jones also told her daughter to complain as well but she didn't believe she had, as she was nervous having only started the new school year.
She added: ""I told my daughter she should complain about it but I don't think she did - she is 11 and has only just started in year seven, you know?
"School dinners are not cheap now and that's what you're paying for?
"I just want them to serve up a proper standard of food. If you're paying for a baguette I would like a bit more care."
Torfaen County Borough Council declined to comment and said Ms Jones should contact West Monmouth School directly.
