Kids are getting smarter by the day. Luckily, the school districts make sure not to keep them healthy.

9-year-old Martha Payne of Argyll, Scotland, started a writing project with her father, Dave. The two chose school lunch, since it's something she could write about daily. Young Martha created the blog NeverSeconds, established a "food-o-meter" and health rating and began taking photos of the food she eats every day, and apparently it's not surprising that the Scottish culinary options are not exactly appealing.

That's what she had today (Wednesday).

And this delicious looking thing is what she had last Friday.

Apparently, Martha's blog started a debate, especially after she received a feedback Tweet from celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, who is known for his fight for more nutritious lunches at schools both in the U.K. and the U.S.

Oliver's tweet made her a viral hit.

In addition, she now posts school lunches kids send her from different countries in the world. This one is from Taiwan.

But according to BBC, An Argyll and Bute Council spokesperson didn't really want a food revolution in his school district, and said: "Our school meal provision is fully compliant with nationally agreed nutritional standards.Young people make a choice from at least two meals and salad, vegetable, yoghurt and cheese options are available each day."

KEEP FIGHTING, MARTHA!
