School meals 'leave kids hungry' in Wales obesity fight
Many schools in Wales have clamped down on lunch second helpings for pupils in the fight against child obesity.
A BBC Wales survey has found a number of councils now leave the decision on extra servings to schools or caterers.
Powys bans pudding as seconds, Cardiff schools are urged to offer only extra bread, and Ceredigion extras are small, bringing complaints from hungry pupils.
But the Welsh government says it would never want children left hungry, and it will issue new guidance next year.
